Zee Cinema has declared Sunday, 1st April 2018 as Fukra’s Day as the channel airs the World Television Premiere of Fukrey Returns at 8 pm.
To promote the World Television Premiere of Fukrey Returns, Richa Chadha and Varun Sharma visited Delhi and made an appearance at Delhi Zoo to celebrate Bijli ka birthday, the same tiger who helps the Fukrey gang to find a treasure worth 10 crores in the film.
Actress Richa Chadha said:
“I had lot of fun portraying the character of Bholi Punjaban. It’s completely opposite to my personality which made it even more exciting. She is like a wounded tigress. Speaking of which, we visited Delhi zoo to celebrate Bijli ka birthday. Bijli helped us find a treasure worth 10 crores in the movie, so we owed her one. I am from Delhi so chidiyaghar is my favourite childhood hangout place. My school is very close to it so we would come here all the time.”
Varun Sharma said:
“Today we are here to celebrate the birthday of Bijli who helped us Fukras find the jackpot. It was like meeting an old friend. I should thank the team at Zee Cinema for giving Richa and me this unique opportunity. The idea is not just to celebrate Bijli’s birthday but also to raise awareness. Tigers are now endangered species and I would sincerely urge everyone to stop hunting animals and save the nature.”
