Open to making 'Fukrey' into a franchise: Riteish Sidhwani

Open to making 'Fukrey' into a franchise: Riteish Sidhwani

New Delhi, Aug 10 (UNI) After the rocking response to 'Fukrey' in 2013, its makers say they are open to make it into a franchise depending on the audience response to its sequel 'Fukrey 2'. Producer Ritesh Sidhwani of Excel entertainment, which produced 'Fukrey' and have now come up with its sequel, said they would definitely like to continue with the series if the audience wanted them to come up with next parts. ' The point of having a film like this is because audience enjoys the characters and they want to see more of it. If they write to us and mail to us to come up with next parts, we will hopefully continue with it. But, we should be able to do justice to it because just for the heck of it you can’t make a film,' Riteish said at a launch of the teaser of 'Fukrey 2', which hits cinema screens on December 8. Talking about 'Fukrey 2', the filmmaker said, 'this part lent itself to an extension because it starts at the right point when first part ends. When Bholi (Played by Richa Chadha) goes to jail, then what happens with these characters is the story of this film,' 'Produced by Excel entertainment, the film is being directed by Mrigdeep Singh Lamba, who directed the first instalment. On the three-year gap between the two instalments of the film, the makers say ,'We took three years because audience should like it. If we would have made a sequel just for the sake of it, then the audience would have criticised us. We took enough time to make it and we made sure that it’s better than the first.' 'Fukrey 2' features the same cast as 'Fukrey' including Pulkit Samrat, Varun Sharma, Ali Fazal, Manjot Singh, Vishakha Singh , Priya Anand and Richa Chadha. A poster of the film was released by its makers on Tuesday. UNI AR RSA 1430
