Priyadarshan has shared a major update on Hera Pheri 3. The director has spoken at length about the after-events of Welcome actor Paresh Rawal exiting the film after signing the contract and commencing initial shoot. The filmmaker, who was coming back on the movie, was left shocked and did not see the exit coming. He explained through the interview his point of view in the whole matter...

Priyadarshan did not sense tension between Akshay Kumar-Paresh Rawal, sides with former

Ask him if a fallout between Akshay Kumar and Paresh Rawal is the reason for the latter's exit and Priyadarshan says he is clueless about the politics in Bollywood. He, however, agrees with Akshay Kumar suing the actor with Rs. 25 crore for exiting Hera Pheri 3 at the end moment. "Naturally," Priyadarshan told ETimes. Nonetheless, he assures that there was no tension between the actors while shooting for Bhooth Bangla and it was a rather comfortable process.

Priyadarshan claims Paresh Rawal's financial demands were met

The filmmaker further clarified that all the financial demands were met, including a token amount as advance. He is further confused because despite their long-standing collaboration, Bhagam Bhag actor Paresh Rawal simply stood up and left without an explanation. This has everyone, including Akshay, puzzled about what really happened.

Priyadarshan shares if the search for new Paresh Rawal in Hera Pheri 3 is on

Priyadarshan further shared that Rawal has not even picked up his calls since exiting the film. The duo was supposed to meet and talk about what went wrong with Phir Hera Pheri, but that did not happen either. The filmmaker believes there's a huge conspiracy behind Rawal's actions, given how he initially opened up to the filmmaker about everything previously. As of now, Priyadarshan has not started looking for Baburao's replacement and is simply in shock over everything that happened.
