There have been reports suggesting that actor Kartik Aaryan would be replacing actor Akshay Kumar in Hera Pheri 3. Fans were highly disappointed by the new development even though nothing was confirmed by the makers. Moreover, it was also reported that Khiladi Kumar would not be a part of the third instalment due to creative differences with the makers. As a lot has been going around the cast of Hera Pheri 3, actor Suniel Shetty who essayed the role of Ghanshyam in the franchise revealed that Kartik can’t replace Akshay.
Suniel Shetty on Hera Pheri 3:
Speaking to Telegraph about the new cast of the film, Suniel said, “But there are reservations regarding the cast. I would only want the original three (Suniel Shetty, Akshay Kumar, and Paresh Rawal) . The original cast would want it as well.” When asked about the rumour reports on Kartik replacing the Rustom actor, Shetty asserted that he is not playing Raju in the movie.
The Main Hoon Na actor said, “Akshay is talking to the makers continuously. Even if Kartik Aaryan is there, he would be completely a new character. He isn’t playing Raju. He can’t play Raju. Only Raju can play Raju! If someone tries to fill Akshay’s or my shoes, a section of the audience can feel we would have been better, but one can’t replace Paresh (Rawal). Each of us has our own standing and that’s one of the reasons why this film has worked.”
Meanwhile, Hera Pheri is a cult classic which was released in 2000. The movie was headlined by Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal and Tabu. Later, the film got a sequel in 2006 which was titled Phir Hera Pheri. Akshay, Suniel and Paresh reprised their roles as Raju, Shyam, and Baburao in the second instalment. Having said that, fans want the trio to even feature in Hera Pheri 3 as well.
On the other hand, another report suggested that Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 director Anees Bazmee has been approached to direct Hera Pheri 3 but has not rejected the film yet.
