Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Indicine - Indicine Team
Mrigdeep Singh Lamba got it horribly wrong with his first film – Teen Thay Bhai. But in his sophomore effort, Mrigdeep gets almost everything right. The story is fun, the situations are even funnier and the dialogues are the funniest. Most of the credit goes to the Old Delhi setting. Choocha’s antics may have been inspired by Mrigdeep’s real life friends considering how neatly etched out his character seems to be. All in all, the film flows with a swift pace with no major intrusive speed bumps. This film should keep everyone hooked till the last frame.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Bollywood Hungama - Taran Adarsh
The best thing about FUKREY is its casting and by zeroing on relative newcomers for the principal leads, the makers steer clear of the baggage of image that reputable actors, generally, cart on their shoulders. Besides, FUKREY comes across as a renaissance for Mrighdeep, who faltered in his directorial debut TEEN THAY BHAI. This time, the screenplay moves fast and furiously, the escapades are wild and wacky and the pacing is just right. In fact, the writing is the biggest strength of the enterprise. Dialogue are witty and mirthful.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By The Times Of India - Madhureeta Mukherjee
Manjot's knack for poker-faced comedy is commendable. Debutant Varun is a surprise package; he steals the show with his spontaneity and uproarious antics. Pulkit pulls off the smart-ass act with confidence, Ali stays sober throughout. Richa is feisty and fires gallons of gaalis with aplomb. Priya and Vishaka breeze through their bits.

While the film really just drags on as the foursome set out to make easy money, Pankaj Tripathi as Pandit -- the enterprising watchman of the college -- keeps things and conversations interesting with his effortless performance. Especially noteworthy is the way Tripathi, in his eastern UP accent, drops random English words when you’re least expecting them.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Bollywood Life - Namrata Thakker
The first-half of the film is slow paced but the comic punches every now then keep you thoroughly entertained. Coming to the performances, Pulkit acts ably and his confidence is laudable. Newbie Varun is the surprise package and stands out with his perfect comic timing, amusing expressions and wacky characterization. Manjeet does justice to his role and makes you laugh with his poker-faced expressions. Ali does a fine job with whatever little lines he has in the film.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Koimoi - Mohar Basu
Mrighdeep Lamba’s Fukrey is anything but a laugh riot. I had to give in a lot of effort to keep myself amused and engrossed throughout the film! Failing to pinpoint which genre did the director want the film to belong to, I presume he had attempted to make a comedy, which did not have any fun, entertainment or laugh factor in it. Gallons of lewd language along with dollops of ridiculous ideas like dreams helping people win lottery, Lamba’s baseless story doesn’t do the film any good. Despite a well taut screenplay and smart editing, it is solely the script’s fault that this film doesn’t remotely achieve what it tries to!
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Glamsham - Martin D'Souza
Pulkit Samrat in only his second outing whips out a seasoned performance. Confident, yet grounded. His Hunny never borders on over exuberance. One wrong foot and this character of his could have easily faltered. But this lad stays 'within' and delivers in style.

Mrighdeep Singh Lamba along with writer Vipul Vig co-write the screenplay, which is peppered with some fantastic scenes and moments, however does have parts which could have been tightened up a little, which includes the running time, which sits at around 2 hours and 15 minutes. Ram Sampat provides the soundtrack to Fukrey and his music jazzes up the mood of the film, with quirky lyrics and tunes from title track ‘Fuk Fuk Fukrey’, to the very likeable ‘Ambarsariya’.

A major part of the credit also goes to the four actors Pulkit Samrat, Varun Sharma, Manjot Singh and Ali Faisal who, despite their limited experience bring to celluloid a highly enjoyable bromance. Richa Chadda who wooed the masses with her stark performance in Gangs Of Wasseypur brings about a pleasant change with her character that's menacing yet entertaining at the same time. It's also a refreshing change to see a female as a don, a field usually depicted by males in Hindi films.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By DNA India - Tushar Joshi
The first half focuses on introducing us to the main leads and their unique traits. Each of them stands apart from the other having distinct personalities. Honey is the good looking smooth operator, Chucha brings in the comic relief, Lalli and Fazal are the sensitive dudes battling their own demons. Even in their disparity there is a sense of bonding and camaraderie in this ensemble. The writing is sharp and even though the setting might seem familiar, we end up buying the story.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Zeenews - Ananya Bhattacharya
All said and done, there are a few points in the narrative when the story loses its pace, but regains the tautness very quickly, thankfully. The music is enjoyable with numbers ranging from peppy to soulful. The essence of Delhi – from the narrow bylanes where Hunny and Varun spend their evenings cycling and staring at women to Lali’s sweet shop have been captured beautifully.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By NDTVMovies - Saibal Chatterjee
Fukrey, at two hours plus, is in danger at times of overstaying its welcome. But the audience remains involved all the way through owing primarily to the endearing quality that the four young male actors bring to the table.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Sify - Sonia Chopra
Perhaps the funniest portion in the film appears in the second half, which shows an elaborate 'mata ki chowki'. At least that portion makes a point about the money-making in god's name, and is therefore hilarious. What also works for the film are the performances and the music.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Mumbai Mirror - Karan Anshuman
However, a few shortcomings keep Fukrey from hitting the bullseye. The crises in the love stories are unconvincing and easily overcome as is the big hurdle in the climax. Talk and chance solve the boys' problem not the adrenaline-inducing thrills one was expecting. This is a case of the film staying the course of its intention, but the ending underwhelms. Logic too, is on shaky ground in key moments.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Indian Express - Shubhra Gupta
That last bit of information would have felt like a spoiler in a more deftly executed film, even if it had a familiar storyline. But given that Fukrey feels so blah most of the time, it really doesn't matter. Each of these guys has a love interest, and some time and effort have gone into establishing their romantic tracks, but it mostly comes off as much too familiar.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By India Today - Vinayak Chakravorty
Director Lamba has a thing for loud humour, evidenced in his first film 3 Thay Bhai. Fukrey, set in Delhi, gives ample scope to play to the gallery with his brand of comedy. The problem is this film can’t seem to decide what flavour of humour it exactly wants to peddle. The mood swings from boisterous to banal and there are few genuine laughs.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Mid-Day India - Shubha Shetty-Saha
The film is a bit slow and meandering at times, especially in the first part. But all is forgiven, as it is garnished with some truly original laugh-out-loud moments (dialogues by Mrighdeep and Vipul Vig). The desi brand of humour is in itself 'paisa vasool' for the ticket money. But what really works for this film is the ensemble cast of near brilliant actors, each of them.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By ApunKaChoice - Nikhil Kumar
The humour is eccentric, implied, subdued, and at times, outright bawdy. Yet, Fukrey never evolves into a crackerjack of a comedy. At best, it’s decently funny and worth a watch for the camaraderie of the four leading characters. The strength of Fukrey lies in its writing by Mrighdeep Singh Lamba and Vipul Vig. Though the film largely remains a sophomoric directorial attempt, it’s the characters and their wackiness that sticks with you.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By IBN Live - Rajeev Masand
That familiar premise gets a fresh coat of paint in 'Fukrey', with co-writer and director Mrighdeep Singh Lamba putting a new spin on some old clichés. Yet, while individual scenes inspire laughs, the film doesn't quite fly because there are too many gags and not enough plot. Unlike the far superior 'Delhi Belly', the writing in 'Fukrey' is never consistent.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Indiaglitz - Vishal Verma
Mrigdeep Singh Lamba manages to make us feel for most of the characters and establishes their individuality. Fukrey owes a lot for its highpoints to its actors display their unique comic strengths with elan.
Pulkit Samrat is charming and shows great confidence. Varun Sharma is highly entertaining.. he along with Pulkhit lift the movie from dull and boring moments. Pankaj Tripathi as Pandit is another highlight his sudden English expressions are brilliant.. Priya Anand is decent. Richa Chadda is excellent. Vishakha Singh is fine.
Fukrey Hindi Movie Reviews By Hindustan Times - Anupama Chopra
Director Mrighdeep Singh Lamba gives us a theatre of the absurd set in East Delhi. The characters and actors are a perfect match. Pulkit embodies the over-confident charmer and Manjot looks comically sweet and bewildered all the time. But my favourite was Varun as the foolish and always-in-heat Choocha whose dreams kick-start the entire mess — he manages to be both, idiotic and endearing. Ram Sampath’s boisterous score add to the rough and tumble feel of the film. But the problem with Fukrey is that the characters and milieu are more engaging than the plot, which gets more far-fetched as it thickens.
