Fukrey 3 box office: Pankaj Tripathi, Pulkit Samrat & Varun Sharma starrer witnesses a solid growth

Director Mrighdeep Lamba’s Fukrey 3 goes on a rampage mode on Sunday at the box office. The comic caper, which opened to a decent response on Thursday, managed to hold well on Friday followed by a growth on Saturday.

However, the film hit the ball out of the park yesterday as it raked in Rs 15.18 crore yesterday and currently stands with a grand total of Rs 43.58 crore. The film will again collect in double-digit numbers as it will enjoy the national Holiday of Gandhi Jayanti and will cross the Rs 55 crore mark at the ticket windows.

However, it will be crucial for the film to hold well on the weekdays as two big films, Thank You For Coming and Mission Raniganj are arriving this Friday at the box office.

Starring Pankaj Tripathi, Varun Sharma, Manjot Singh and Richa Chadha in prominent roles, the film is produced under the banner of Excel Entertainment.

In an exclusive interview with Firstpost, Richa spoke about her character and said, “Bholi Punjaban of course, went from being a small-time thief, to a big-time thief. Now she’s a goon. So, she wants full control, and she wants total monopoly, and she as you know, whatever ministry she’s fighting for, she’ll try and totally control it and deprive everyone else of that resource. So, there’s that evil streak in her for sure. But I think Fukrey toh wo bhi hai, she keeps listening to you guys and coming back and believing your weird dreams and believing your weird gifts from God. So, I guess the evolution is just in that she’s gotten greedier!”

Talking about the review, Firstpost gave the film 4 stars and wrote, “Fukrey 3 largely belongs to Varun Sharma and Pankaj Tripathi, who carry the film on their shoulders and take us on a laugh riot with their superb comic timing. Pulkit Samrat and Manjot Singh reprise their characters and manage to impress us with their apt portrayals. Richa as Bholi oozes swag with a dose desi rawness and a firey attitude. On the whole, Fukrey 3 is one of the best entertainers of 2023 with ample laughters, hilarious punches and an important social message.”
