Fukrey Returns will see Pulkit as Hunny (Vikas Gulati), Varun as Choocha (Dilip Singh), Ali as Zafar, Manjot as Lali and Richa as Bholi Punjaban. The story is that Bholi Punjaban is back from the prison and is in no mood to spare the Fukra who put her there.

Meanwhile, the Fukrey, unaware of the fact that Bholi has been released, are leading the same life they had been at the time Bholi got arrested. The twist however is, Choocha can now predict the future. Bholi catches up to the foursome and decides to use them to earn all the money she had lost, and much more. With a big scam in mind, will Bholi succeed in her plan is the crux of the movie.
