Fukrey 3 gets a NEW release date, the joyride begins sooner than expected

Farhan Akhtar and Riteish Sidhwani’s 2013 production Fukrey emerged as a sleeper hit on its release. The film became a cult classic over the years and led to a sequel being made. This year, the series expands with Fukrey 3 and after a lot of back and forth, it has got a new release date.

Fukrey 3 gets preponed

The film has had a journey of its own with its release dates. First it was announced to arrive on September 7, 2023. But when Shah Rukh Khan starrer Jawan was pushed from June 2 to September 7, Farhan and Riteish pushed their film to a December 1 release. However, soon after, Ranbir Kapoor starrer Animal was postponed from August 11 to December 1, putting the buddy comedy up for another clash.
