Hera Pheri is incomplete without Baburao, Raju, and Shyam characters played by Paresh Rawal, Akshay Kumar, and Suniel Shetty. Fans were delighted when it was announced that the OG trio would return for Hera Pheri 3, the third instalment; however, Rawal made a sudden statement that he had left the project, leaving everyone heartbroken. But now, the veteran actor made another statement that he has returned to the franchise and said that all the issues were resolved.
Fans are on cloud nine as Paresh Rawal confirmed that he has returned to Hera Pheri 3 as all issues were resolved. In a conversation on The Himanshu Mehta Show, the veteran actor was asked about the controversy, and he said, "No, there is no controversy. What happens is that when something is loved by so many people, we have to be extra careful. It is our responsibility towards the audience. The audience loves you so much, you can’t take that for granted. You have to give them your best through hard work."
He added that his view is that everyone should come together and work hard and mentioned that nothing has actually happened and it is all resolved now.
Reacting to whether Hera Pheri 3 is proceeding as planned, he said that it was supposed to come anyway and added that what happens is that sometimes you have to fine-tune things with each other because all of them are creative people. "Like Priyadarshan, Akshay, and Sunil—they have been my friends for many, many years," he said.
Meanwhile, earlier, Paresh Rawal mentioned that he did not leave Hera Pheri 3 due to creative differences, but rather because he felt the production was disorganized and lacked a finalized script. Now that he is back, fans cannot wait to see the magic of Baburao, Shyam, and Raju once again on the big screens.
