When Fukrey released in 2013, it was a sleeper hit that carved out a niche for itself by portraying the aimless, scamming lifestyle of Delhi’s middle-class youth with raw, unpolished charm. The challenge with Fukrey Returns (2017) was always going to be the "sequel curse": how do you replicate the spontaneous magic of a movie about slackers when those slackers are now successful, and the audience already knows their tricks?
