Mrighdeep Singh Lamba's film Fukrey 3 is set in East Delhi, where Bholi Punjaban is running for office and focusing her campaign on the region's water shortage. Bholi's genuine motivations, however, are selfish. When the fukras make a mistake while helping her with her campaign, Bholi sends them to South Africa. They manage to get back despite this setback, and Choocha chooses to challenge Bholi in the election. The storyline, however, gets trickier when the rival hopefuls tie the knot.
Several internet rumors claim that Ali Fazal, who portrayed Zafar in the previous films, also made a fleeting appearance in Fukrey 3. Find out how much each performer was paid for their part in the comedy-drama, even though it had a strong start at the box office.

The third edition of the comic franchise paid Pulkit Samrat Rs 2 crore to reprise his role as Vikas Gulati, also known as Hunny, the head of the fukra gang. According to Zee News, Varun Sharma, who portrays Hunny's close friend Dilip Singh nicknamed Choocha, also earned the same payment as Samrat. However, Manjot Singh, who plays Lali Halwai in Fukrey 3, was compensated with Rs 60 lakh for his work.
Richa Chadha received Rs 1 crore for playing Bholi Punjaban once more in the third film of the immensely successful franchise. The cast member with the highest salary is Pankaj Tripathi. The 47-year-old National Award-winning actor received a salary of Rs 3 crore for playing the part of Panditji in Fukrey 3, according to Zee News.
Richa Chadha told Hindustan Times that she was thrilled that her character, Bholi Punjaban, will get more screen time in Fukrey 3 and added, "This time Bholi is present throughout the film and provides a lot of spice. She had just arrived in the first section, but now that she's back, she's struggling and approaching the lads for assistance; in some ways, she's also evolved into a fukri. Being able to hang out with these lads more, bother them, torture them, and beat them up makes me extremely glad to do Bholi.
Three movies are anticipated to compete with Fukrey 3 at the box office: Vivek Agnihotri's The Vaccine War, Kangana Ranaut's horror-comedy Chandramukhi 2, and the psychological thriller Iraivan starring Jayam Ravi and Nayanthara.
