"Bittoo Boss" fame Pulkit Samrat says director Mrighdeep Singh Lamba has incoporated his real life experience in "Fukrey".

Pulkit, who will be seen as one of the leads in the film, said every character shows Singh's reflection.

"Mrighdeep is the biggest fukra. All that you will see in the movie has been picked from his life only. Every character has a little bit of Mrighdeep in it," Pulkit said here Thursday at a radio station during the promotion of "Fukrey".

To essay his role, Pulkit also took the mannerisms of Mrighdeep.

"I personally picked up Mrighdeep's mannerisms to do what Honey is doing in the film," said the 30-year-old and added: "Because of him everybody has learnt how to speak like fukras."

Co-produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani, "Fukrey" also features Manjot Singh, Ali Faisal, Richa Chadda and southern actress Priya Anand.

The film is slated to release June 14.
