With Fukrey's massive hit, it evolved over the years and became a full-blown franchise. Soon, its second part, Fukrey Returns, came in the year 2017, which took its charm forward. Then, in 2023, Fukrey 3 came, which further cemented the franchise's place in Bollywood comedy history. In a recent post, Pulkit posted a tribute video recalling his 12-year-long journey with Fukrey, calling it a ride filled with laughter, chaos, and brotherhood.
