A cult hit, Fukrey remains one of the best movie franchises in the last few decades. The flick, that starred Pulkit Samrat, Varun Sharma, Richa Chadha, Manjot Singh, and Pankaj Tripathi still enjoys a massive fan following. Recently, the makers of the comedy caper announced that Fukrey 3 will be dropping this December, leaving fans excited. However, Ali Fazal, who played a key role in the movie, will not be reprising his role.
Ali, who was seen in the Hollywood movie Kandahar, told a leading entertainment portal that it is indeed heartbreaking that he is not a part of Fukrey 3. He however clarified that it was not his Hollywood projects that kept him busy, rather Mirzapur 3, that took up much of his time, so he had to take a call to opt out of the movie. When quizzed if he would make a cameo in it, Fazal replied, ‘I don’t know’, leaving fans to guess.
Ali also added that even though he is not a part of the movie, the Fukrey gang is his family and he chills with them often, calling it a friendship that has lasted years.
Meanwhile Kandahar, co-starring Gerard Butler, will stream on OTT from June 16.
