Fukrey in Hindi which literally means cheap. The film portrays the struggle of 4 guys trying to take shortcuts to reach their goals. The wired guy played by Varun Sharma as Choocha the dreamer, the confident Pulkit Samrat as Hunny the school students and Lali the sweet guy played the son of Bali Halwali doing correspondence in Delhi followed by Ali Fazal as Zafar graduate and a budding musician who devoured his life to music who is still struggling to make a foot.
Fukrey is a hilarious satire a small slice of our Indian education system on reel when students migrate from school to colleges and the anxiety of public exams to score goods marks to get into desired college. This is a period when students crave and count days to start their new college life. These anxiety leads Hunny and Choocha the lottery buying easy money seekers who get into trouble with Bholi Punjaban played by Richa Chadda the money lender and also a dangerous criminal which drives them to do illegal businesses.
Neetu, Zafar's ex-fiancé played by Vishakha Singh with whom Zafar is in still love with leaves her when she confronts to Zafar to choose her or music but he chooses music. This sets the underline theme of conflict shortcut VS struggle.
But only fact that has to be noted which strikes me is that they never show any back story of Hunny like his family or other friends expect Choocha as his best friend and Priya played by Priya Anand as love interest.
Pankaj Tripathi as the corrupt security guard and the man walking on the street with a hearing problem whom Lali inquires when the beggar takes away his motorbike parts or cylinder adds humor to the story which did make the audience laugh their hearts out loud.
Ambarsariya and Raba are refreshing songs.
