The much-awaited comedy sequel Fukrey 3 recently went on floors.
Directed by Mrigdeep Singh Lamba, the popular franchise stars Pulkit Samrat, Varun Sharma, Ali Fazal, Richa Chadha, Manjot Singh and Pankaj Tripathi.
Now, if this latest report is to be believed, Ali Fazal aka Zafar has opted out of the film citing packed schedule. Reportedly, he has allegedly dedicated his dates to Vishal Bharadwaj’s upcoming movie titled ‘Kuttey’.
As the report further suggests, Ali won’t be replaced and the story will apparently be tweaked accordingly to justify his absence.
“Ali was busy till early February with the shoot of Kandahar, and promotions of Death on the Nile. Keeping his commitments in mind, Vishal sir lined up Khufiya for February,” a source revealed to the portal.
“Meanwhile, Mrighdeep got the combination dates of Richa, Pankaj Tripathi, Varun Sharma, Pulkit Samrat, and Manjot Singh, and is eager to roll Fukrey 3. It’s an unfortunate turn of events, but Ali won’t be a part of it as he is busy with the thriller till March-end,” the source added.
