Bollywood buffs, brace yourselves! The iconic Baburao Apte is back in action as Paresh Rawal confirms his return to the much-awaited Hera Pheri 3, and director Priyadarshan spills the beans on the emotional rollercoaster behind the scenes.
In a plot twist that rivals the best Bollywood dramas, Paresh Rawal’s U-turn on his decision to exit the film has left fans ecstatic. Priyadarshan, the mastermind behind the upcoming installment, recently shared the inside scoop on how Rawal’s return unfolded, leaving him in a state of disbelief.
“Both Akshay and Paresh called to say everything is sorted. I was in shock when Paresh said, ‘Sir, I’m doing the movie.’ He added, ‘I’ve never had anything but respect for you. I’ve done 26 films with you, and I’m sorry for leaving. There were some personal issues.’ He told me that he, Akshay, and Suniel met and cleared the air,” Priyadarshan revealed.
The saga of Paresh Rawal’s departure had sent shockwaves through the industry, with fans eagerly anticipating the reunion of the beloved trio comprising Baburao, Raju, and Shyam. The revelation of Rawal’s comeback not only put an end to the disappointment but also reignited the fervor surrounding the film.
Priyadarshan, reflecting on the cult status of the Hera Pheri franchise, acknowledged its unparalleled charm. “Whatever I do, I cannot surpass Hera Pheri. The second part was bad—it was a copy of a Hollywood film.
But Hera Pheri can’t happen without all three. In fact, a diamond merchant once approached me on a flight and said, ‘Please bring back Paresh Rawal. We won’t watch it otherwise,'” he shared.
With the trio back in the saddle and the fans’ hearts aflutter with anticipation, Hera Pheri 3 is poised to reignite the magic that captured audiences’ hearts in the original film.
The rollercoaster journey of Hera Pheri 3’s casting serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of the Bollywood industry, where emotions run high, and fans’ voices hold immense power. As Paresh Rawal gears up to reprise his unforgettable role, the stage is set for a blockbuster reunion that promises to be nothing short of legendary.
