Mumbai: In a massive sigh of relief for fans across the nation, veteran actor Paresh Rawal has officially confirmed his return to the much-anticipated ‘Hera Pheri 3’, reprising his beloved and iconic role as Baburao Ganpatrao Apte. This news puts an end to weeks of intense speculation, legal wrangles, and financial disagreements that had cast a shadow over the film’s production. Rawal’s statement now clears the air, signalling that the original and much-adored trio – Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, and Rawal himself – are back on track to bring laughter to the big screen.
The journey to this confirmation has been anything but smooth. Reports of Rawal’s initial exit due to payment structure concerns and a subsequent legal notice from Akshay Kumar’s production house had left the future of the cult comedy franchise hanging in uncertainty. However, all these issues are now reportedly resolved, paving the way for the film to finally move forward with its quintessential cast.
Speaking on a recent podcast, a candid Paresh Rawal addressed the situation, emphasizing the immense responsibility that comes with reviving such a cherished franchise. “When something is so well loved by people, we have to be extra careful — it is our responsibility towards the audience. The audience is here to show you love. You can’t take that for granted; you must work hard and give them your best,” he stated.
Rawal further explained that the temporary setbacks were a result of “fine-tuning” between the creative individuals involved, including director Priyadarshan, Akshay Kumar, and Suniel Shetty, all of whom have been friends for many years. With the inimitable Baburao now firmly back in the fold, excitement for ‘Hera Pheri 3’ has reached an all-time high, promising a nostalgic and uproarious cinematic experience for legions of dedicated fans.
