Fukrey Returns (2017)

Such a frustrating disappointment

best movie i've ever seen.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Fukrey Returns - A Review by Kalyug BriefsWhen a woman decides to get her work done...she can utilize even the most useless 'Fukreys' and come out with flying colors!This is what the film is all about! Bholi Punjaban is a lady Don who was previously a brothel Madam plus had several other criminal projects under her wing - distributing drugs to frustrated college students, providing sex workers to the frustrated slimy pigs of the nation etc. She was caught and sent behind the bars because of 4 young fools! That happened in part I.Part II - she gets released with the help of a corrupt politician who wants to become the Chief Minister! She was angry with the 4 young fools so she decides to make them work for her and collect the money that she had to pay to the corrupt minister - 10 crore in 10 days! They open up a 'Get rich quick' scheme and several people invest. Unfortunately they fail and people run after them like blood thirsty hounds. Later somehow the good politician helps them get the corrupt man behind the bars and they are all saved! Everything forgiven and forgotten!Some random scenes:2 zoo keepers steal beef meat that belonged to the tigress! Both were discussing whether beef was banned for the animals at the zoo! Shows that even if you are employed, you can still steal...even steal from animals! Humans are ready to eat the putrid meat kept aside for animals also!The 2 African stooges or body guards of Lady Don were doing Seva in langar - washing utensils and distributing prasaad to people at the langar...but as soon as their boss got released they went back to their old profession - stealing animals, stealing human organs etc! The lady Don had hired doctors and nurses to steal organs of people - eyes, kidney and export them!! All this to make money. At the end, it is shown that this lady was forgiven and she is travelling with the Chief Minister in his car!! Shows that thugs, smugglers...basically criminals involved in organ harvesting, drug dealing, sex worker providing - which of course will include girl child kidnapping etc...is all forgiven by the Government of India...because such are the smart opportunist people who are required to run the nation...a nation of fukreys!?And what about all the Seva done in the Langar? All went kaput? No change of mind and heart? No change of spirit or soul took place in spite of working and staying in a religious place for so long!? SO basically it is quite possible that people visit temples etc. for time pass or do some seva thinking it to be a kind of bribe for the Gods!! People judge Gods by their standards after all!

First Part of the movie received unexpected response from the audience so the makers decided to plan a sequel. I went to watch this film along with my friends hoping that it will be a good movie but it turned out to be complete opposite. Pulkit Samrat, Varun Sharma & Richa Chadda get most of the screen time. Rest of the cast - Ali Zafar, Manjot Singh, Priya Anand and Vishaka Singh failed to impress as they hardly get any screen time. Pankaj Tripathi was good though. The rest of it is disjointed scenes stitched together in a haphazard fashion.

Fukrey Returns is a very entertaining movie.I liked it a bit more than the first part.Varun's(Choocha) and Pankaj Tripathi's(Panditji) Comic Roles,Pulkit's(Hunny) Smart Avatar and Richa's(Bholi Punjaban) Don Avtar are the best parts when it comes to Acting.This movie definitely has a good story.How Choocha sees glimpses of future and how it all helps them win the jackpot and unknowingly putting the Babulal Bhatia(Corrupt Politician) into trouble is the movie's climax.Babulal Bhatia's acting is also brilliant.He is the mastermind who gets the four Fukrey's and Bholi Punjaban into trouble in the 1st half of the movie and they get their revenge in the second part of the movie.Overall,Good Acting,Good Story,Funny Scenes is what makes the movie entertaining.The film only lacks good songs but still definitely worth a watch!!

I'm a great fan of the first movie that released in 2013 but this one really disappointed me as a sequel. This had to happen, there are changes that come with time but here the entire feel of the movie is different. It ultimately turned out to be a mainstream comedy which goes pointless in the end especially with its story. The previous one was pretty much an experimental comedy but it was engaging and something different, this one just has a bit more of tragic comedy A lot of overacting is done whereas some characters fade away, in the end Varun Sharma comes out as the highlight! All the comedy in the movie comes with him and Bholi too. It's not bad if you like to laugh and let loose but it does get boring and over dramatic in the second half especially. All Fukrey fans be ready to laugh again with Choocha's jokes but only if you can handle the story.
