Fukrey 3, featuring stars like Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma, is creating a buzz in the cinemas, notwithstanding its simultaneous release with Chandramukhi 2 and The Vaccine War. The latest entry in the humorous Fukrey series premiered on September 28, competing with Kangana Ranaut's Chandramukhi 2 and Vivek Agnihotri’s The Vaccine War. Regardless of the trifecta face-off, Fukrey 3 has held its ground solidly at the box office and shows no sign of slowing down, reflecting its commercial strength and appeal.

The movie saw a remarkable 30 per cent increase in earnings on its first Sunday. After a soft opening at ₹8.82 crore and a subsequent decline on the following day, the film experienced its peak revenue on the fourth day, securing ₹15.25 crore as per preliminary figures provided by Sacnilk.com. After seeing a surge on the third day and acquiring double-digit earnings of ₹11.67 crore, the movie enjoyed an additional 30 per cent increase on the fourth day, bringing the aggregate collection to ₹43.50 crore.
Speculations are ripe about the repercussions of Fukrey 3 joining the ₹50 crore club. Should the humorous film achieve this milestone, it would surpass the records set by its predecessors in the Fukrey series. The original Fukrey film concluded its run with a lifetime achievement of ₹49 crore. Thus, if the third movie in the series attains or exceeds the ₹50 crore threshold this week, it would be establishing a new benchmark for the franchise.
The film, penned by Vipul Vig and directed by Mrigdeep Singh Lamba, is brought to the audience by producers Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani, working under the Excel Entertainment banner. Despite the confrontation with other major releases, Fukrey 3 continues to showcase a resilient performance, gaining traction steadily. Pulkit Samrat and his co-star Varun Sharma have, evidently, succeeded in drawing the audience with their comic allure, leaving viewers and industry watchers curious about whether it will shatter its own franchise record by reaching the ₹50 crore mark.
The continued success and buoyancy of Fukrey 3 at the box office, despite robust competition, underscore its substantial entertainment value and audience pull. It remains to be seen how the comedy spectacle will conclude its cinematic journey, possibly setting new highs for the franchise. This development is eagerly watched by cinema enthusiasts and industry analysts, making Fukrey 3 one of the focal points in current box office discussions.
