Suniel Shetty says Hera Pheri 3 '100% cannot happen' without Paresh Rawal: 1% without Akshay Kumar or me

Suniel Shetty is the latest to talk about Hera Pheri 3 'crisis' since Paresh Rawal's exit from the movie. The actor, like Priyadarshan mentioned, is clueless about what really happened. All that he knows is that the movie cannot happen if Baburao doesn't exist, since the plot wouldn't work. The actor further shared about the time when he learned the news. Here's everything he said...

Suniel Shetty sure that Hera Pheri won't work without Paresh Rawal

"It cannot happen. 100 per cent cannot happen without Paresh Rawal. It can have 1 per cent chance without me and Akshay, but 100% can’t happen without Paresh ji. No, it doesn’t. Raju and Shyam, if they’re not hammered by Babu here, it doesn’t work," the actor told ANI in an interview. This is because Baburao is the core of Hera Pheri, who brought Raju and Shyam together as his tenants. The trio then became partner-in-crime throughout Hera Pheri and Phir Hera Pheri.

Expressing shock over Paresh Rawal's exit from Hera Pheri 3, the actor hoped to make some calls and dig deep about what went wrong. Like the viewers, he too was looking forward to Hera Pheri 3, that would mark the trio's iconic comeback as Raju, Shyam and Baburao.

In another interview with India Today, the actor revealed that his children Athiya and Ahan Shetty (soon to be seen in Border 2) sent him the news while he was in the middle of Kesari Veer interviews. "They both sent it to me within 15 minutes, asking 'papa what is this?' And I was here doing my interviews, and I felt like 'holy s***," he shared while expressing shock over how his Welcome To The Jungle (after Welcome and Welcome Back) co-star simply exited Hera Pheri 3 out of nowhere.
