Director Priyadarshan opened up on helming Hera Pheri 3, which will reunite the fan favourite characters played by Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal and Suniel Shetty. <\/p>\n

Fans have been eagerly waiting to see Hera Pheri 3<\/a>, which will bring together Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, and Suniel Shetty. The film has had its fair share of controversy, given Paresh\u2019s sudden exit from the project, which shocked both fans and Akshay Kumar, who had acquired the rights to the franchise. Paresh confirmed his return and that the film is now back on track. He mentioned that the film will start shooting in February-March next year.<\/p>\n

Now, director Priyadarshan has opened up about Hera Pheri 3. In a conversation with Pinkvilla<\/a>, he said, “I cannot tell if I am doing the third part, unless and until I can crack a film which has to do justice to the first instalment. The first part was born, but the third one shouldn\u2019t let it die. If I am doing the film, I have to make sure that it is tolerable for people who watched the first part.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018If a good script doesn\u2019t turn out\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cUnless and until I crack the full film, I will never attempt part three. If a good script doesn\u2019t turn out to my conviction, I will not do the film. I have climbed certain heights in my career from where I don\u2019t want to fall badly.\u201d<\/p>\n

In May this year, Paresh Rawal had announced his departure from the third instalment. Shortly after, Akshay Kumar\u2014who is also producing the film through his banner Cape of Good Films\u2014filed a lawsuit related to the project. However, Rawal later confirmed his return to the film<\/p>\n

Directed by Priyadarshan, Hera Pheri first released in 2000, introducing audiences to the iconic trio of Baburao Ganpatrao Apte (Rawal), Raju (Kumar), and Shyam (Shetty). The characters returned in the 2006 sequel Phir Hera Pheri, directed by Neeraj Vora.<\/p>\n
