The third part of the 2000 cult film Hera Pheri has been the talk of the tinsel town for some time now. Last week, it was reported that Akshay Kumar is set to bring back the upcoming parts of his hit comedy-drama movies including Hera Pheri, Awara Pagal Deewana, and Welcome. However, now the buzz states that the actor has been pulled out of all these projects. On the other hand, a new tweet surfaced by Paresh Rawal, where the actor confirms Kartik Aaryan for Hera Pheri 3.

Paresh Rawal, who also plays a pivotal character in Hera Pheri and Phir Hera Pheri, shared a tweet on Friday morning, November 11, replying 'yes' to a fan who asked if the 31-year-old actor is part of the forthcoming movie.

The tweet of the fan reads, "@SirPareshRawal sir is it true that kartik aryan is doing Hera Pheri 3 ??"

While, Rawal replies, "Yes it’s true . (Sic)."

According to the latest report on Pinkvilla, a source closer to the development revealed, "Hera Pheri, Welcome, and Awara Pagal Deewana are three of the most loved franchises led by Akshay Kumar, and he was quite keen to revisit the iconic films. However, after several rounds of meetings, he has decided to take a step back, as he couldn’t align with the broad script ideas.” 

The source also added that how Kumar is aware of his fans' expectations, however, he refused the projects due to the quality of the scripts as he's not ready to compromise and make these sequels without proper thought.

On the other hand, there is no official statement has been made by the makers about Aaryan's involvement in Hera Pheri 3 as of now.
