Fukrey (2013)

Had expected a lot because so many of my friend liked it..... but I was totally disappointed..... there's no challenge in acting so acting is OK.... you won't be able to relate a single event which can happen in your life.... well you can dream about it!... I think from these kind of movies someone should be able to make connection to his/ her life.... otherwise it's easy to produce such movies to our Indian audience.

Movie highlighted the Indian Jugad with some twist & turns worth admiration.... all in all if you want to watch a movie just for fun and don't want to mull over then you can have it once!!

Fmovies: Mrighdeep Singh Lamba's 'Fukrey' is amusing, funny & very entertaining. No, its not flawless, but in totality, this recent sleeper hit works big time!

'Fukrey' Synopsis: The paths of four dream-chasing college friends cross with an array of colorful characters, from a tough-talking Punjabi female don to a Jugaad Baaz college watchman. Mayhem ensues.

'Fukrey' is fun from the word GO. The central protagonists as well as the supporting characters, particularly, the villain, are diverse & interesting. The humor works, because the Screenplay Written by Vipul Vig & Lamba himself, is genuinely good. The first-hour is absorbing, while The Second-Hour progresses furiously. Lamba's Direction is rustic. Cinematography, Editing & Art Design, are perfect. Music by Ram Sampath, is fabulous.

Performance-Wise: Pulkit Samrat, Manjot Singh, Ali Fazal & Varun Sharma are excellent. They share a terrific on-screen chemistry & portray the twisted heroes with great energy. Richa Chadda is outstanding. She stands out as the menace. Priya Anand & Vishakha Singh are restrained. Pankaj Tripathi is marvelous, as always.

On the whole, 'Fukrey' is a Joyride!

Fukrey has got its base trembling with a plot so naive, viewer discretion is recommended. Its screenplay is bit confusing for people who don't pay attention. Otherwise, it is a healthy Bollywood comedy film.

Cast performance is nothing to talk about but the actors have managed to create enough chemistry between themselves. Although love doesn't come center-stage, it amuses. The music is catchy, but the lilts could've been improvised. Same theme music is used all over the 130 minutes. Cinematography, I would say, is brilliant especially shots involving mirrors. Editing is quite good.

But, since the foundation itself is slimy, I rate it an AVERAGE 5.7/10. Mixing lucid dreams with reality doesn't really prove a point. The story in second half is much like Delhi Belly & other caper films where a gang try hard to please a big boss. It's a bit clichéd but the journey adopted by the Fukreys is enjoyable. They entertain and that is what matters.

Dialogs are funny & straight, songs are good and overall, a fine comedy without classic cinema potential. Had expected more from the team.

BOTTOM LINE: A sleeper hit that can be enjoyed once, with like-minded friends.

Can be watched with a typical Indian family? NO

Fukrey fmovies. Really, its amazing to see the new crop of Directors, Actors, Writers, Musicians, Singers, Technicians that is driving Indian Cinema to a new Horizon. This new generation people are threatening the traditional Hindi Cinema people by their talent and either putting these people on the sidelines or pushing them to try something new. Sanjay Leela Bhansali making a movie on Mary Kom, Karan Johar trying his hands in Bombay Talkies and other big film houses giving shelters to the new gen directors are amongst the few example of changing times. Of course some people are put on sidelines and some have not learnt. And Shahrukh trying to work with successful comedy Film Maker Rohit Shetty to save his career & brand somehow.

College life is one of the best years of your life - education , college fest , private parties , cool girls , ragging and sometimes new ideas to earn some pocket money. Every student who passes out of school wants to join hip-n-happening college. Unfortunately, very few are able to make it through.

Fukrey tells the story of 4 young clads - Hunny and Choocha are good-for-nothing school students who wants to relish the luxurious environment of college. Lali wants to show his back-stabbing girlfriend that he can pull-it-through the same college she is admitted in. Zafar is unlucky musician who wants money at any cost for operation to treat his paralyzed father. 4 of them falls into the trap of local female don and must do something to return back the money they lend from her.

Set in the lively city of Delhi , Fukrey is fun to watch. The story does not have much to boast and screenplay is timid but yet it is the execution of the plot which makes it watchable. Mrigdeep Singh Lamba does a fairly good job in keeping you entertained with comic scenes and is sure to bring down the house with hilarious moments. Cinematoraphy is amazing capturing the locales of Delhi. Background score is good. Out of 4 protagonist , Pulkeet Samrat and newcomer Varun Sharma stands out with superb chemistry. Both of them should be applauded for fine comic-timings. Richa Chadha and Manjot Singh do lend in good support.

Fukrey is a Laughton which will be remembered for its utmost hilarious moments. Good 3.5/5

The movie starts a bit slow but then it catches the speed. One of my highly anticipated movie of 2013 that didn't disappointed me but was different in its own way. All the characters were good in their roles specially Bholi Punjaban. Its true that we many a times opt for shortcuts in our lives but after watching "Fukrey" you might end thinking twice every time. It is basically based on four friends with their struggle to earn money for their respective needs and their journey goes crazy enough. A couple of good songs add charm to the film. Unlike other comedy flicks in Bollywood this one has a very realistic approach that carries humor as well as seriousness. Highly recommended... Ratings 3.5 out of 5
