‘Zafar bhai ko kabhi kabhi…’: Ali Fazal opens up about not being part of ‘Fukrey 3’

New Delhi: Ali Fazal broke the silence on the speculation of him not being a part of ‘Fukrey 3’. The buzz began when fans found him missing from the posters of the third instalment of the Fukrey franchise. Fazal, in a statement, said that he would not be a part of the film as he was busy shooting for ‘Mirzapur 3’.

The actor said everyone was asking him about Zafar’s part in Fukrey, and he is sorry that this time Zafar will not be there in ‘Fukrey 3’. He added that sometimes Zafar has to become Guddu and these two universes overlap at times.

However, he said, “Once a fukra always a fukra,” and he will be around while he will not be on the screen along with others. He also hinted that he will be part of the future ventures of the ‘Fukrey’ franchise.

‘Fukrey 3’, directed by Mrighdeep Singh Lamba stars Pulkit Samrat, Varun Sharma, Manoj Singh, Richa Chadha, and Pankaj Tripathi.
