Talking about what makes people love the Fukrey franchise so much, Pankaj Tripathi said, “I feel relatability. Ten years back when the first part came, it made people laugh so much and like us, the audience has also grown up with the film. They laughed ten years back and got connected with the characters of the film.”

Pankaj Tripathi continued, “Also I feel, we don’t give the right credit to the comedy films. When you make somebody laugh, you give them the moments of thoughtlessness which meditation gives after years of practice. So, films that make people laugh are closer to them. I feel this is a different way of seeing a comedy film.”
Talking about what new the audience can expect in Fukrey 3 and from his character this time, he said, “The character is the same, only the situation is different. Their journey is different. The canvas and scaling of the film is very big this time. There is much more laughter than the previous two installments.”
