NEW DELHI: Actor Pulkit Samrat, who is set to return to the comedy franchise “Fukrey” with its third installment, says he is looking forward to working on the film early next year.
Directed by Mrigdeep Singh Lamba, the Delhi-set film series follows four friends — played by Samrat, Ali Fazal, Varun Sharma and Manjot Singh — who come together to make easy money.
Samrat, who essays the role of Hunny who interprets Choocha’s (Sharma) dreams to win a lottery, said the film’s script has been locked and the cast is excited to start shooting for the threequel.
“The script is done and we had a narration. We are all super excited to go on floors. We will start the shooting early next year,” the actor said.
The new film will also see actors Richa Chadha and Pankaj Tripathi reprise their roles.
Samrat’s next will be Prabhu Solomon’s trilingual feature “Haathi Mere Saathi”, opposite Rana Daggubati.
The 36-year-old actor said he had a wonderful time shooting for the project, which was simultaneously shot in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
“I’m playing the character of Shankar in the Hindi version of the film. My character is played by Vishnu Vishal in Tamil and Telugu versions. The best part about this film was that we shot all the three versions simultaneously.
“I would do my shot for Hindi and move aside. Then, Vishnu would come to shoot the same scene for Tamil and Telugu versions. Sometimes, I would like his shot for the other two versions better and would reshoot my scenes. It was a fun process,” Samrat said. (AGENCIES)
