"People used to ask me when we are going to venture into television, but we weren't being able to find the right story for the television platform. There are shows we have produced for the digital platform but they are more like features. This, I think, lent itself and these are the characters that people have loved," said Ritesh Sidhwani in a media interaction.

Varun Sharma, who has got a lot of appreciation playing Choocha, said at a media interaction: "We have all watched animation shows in our growing-up years. It's a blessing for any actor when you see an animated version of your character, it feels beautiful. My niece and nephews are excited about this show. I showed them the trailer and some stills and they can't wait to watch ‘Fukrey Boyzzz' on Discovery."
Sharing her thoughts on the animated show Fukrey Boyzz, Richa Chadha, who plays Bholi Punjaban said: "I loved it. I always felt that our film should be made in animated version. It's like Harry Porter. Everyone loves it and everyone enjoys it."
