The expectations from 'Fukrey 3' are immense as the last two parts have been hugely successful. According to reports censor process of 'Fukrey 3' has been completed and the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has granted a U/A certificate to the comic caper.

However, the CBFC asked for a few minor changes. In one place, visuals of world leaders like ex-President of the USA Donald Trump, President of Russia Vladimir Putin, etc. were seen on a poster. The CBFC's Examining Committee asked the makers to remove the said poster.

The other change was related to the dialogue, 'Jaise Sanju baba ne Maqsood bhai ko jhappi daali'. This was probably in reference to the touching scene in 'Munna Bhai MBBS' (2003), where Munna Bhai (Sanjay Dutt) hugs a cleaner, Maqsood (Surendra Rajan), in the hospital. The cut list mentions that the aforementioned dialogue was 'modified suitably' though additional details were not given.

Lastly, the anti-smoking health ad was added in the beginning and after the first half. Once these changes were done, the censor certificate was granted to the makers of 'Fukrey 3' on September 20. The length of the film, as mentioned on the certificate, is 150 minutes. In other words, 'Fukrey 3' is 2 hours and 30 minutes long.

'Fukrey 3' is directed by Mrighdeep Singh Lamba and it stars Pulkit Samrat, Richa Chadha, Varun Sharma, Manjot Singh, and Pankaj Tripathi. The earlier two parts, 'Fukrey' (2013) and 'Fukrey Returns' (2017), also featured Ali Fazal. It is produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar and will arrive in theatres on September 28.
