The fact that Hera Pheri 3 is about to start filming is one of the greatest developments in Indian cinema this year. According to rumors that surfaced last month, the movie will star Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, and Paresh Rawal. The trio filmed a promo, and a photo taken on the set quickly became popular. The casting thereafter became the subject of numerous articles. According to sources, Sanjay Dutt has been cast in the movie and will play a significant role. The same has been confirmed by Suniel Shetty. Read more scoop below.
Hera Pheri 3: Suniel Shetty Confirms Sanjay Dutt’s Casting
In an interview with the Bombay Times published today, Suniel Shetty has confirmed Sanjay Dutt’s casting. The actor passionately commented on this development and told readers that Sanju Baba will take the film to another level. Suniel Shetty said, “With Sanjay Dutt on board, the movie will be a laugh riot because of Sanju’s incredible sense of humor. His comedic timing and body language will give this project more ek aur chaand. He’ll take it a step further. We have a great relationship, and that will show on screen as well.”
Fans of the Hera Pheri series were disappointed when it was revealed that Akshay Kumar might not appear in the upcoming installment last year. Akshay said that he was forced to leave the project. Akshay Kumar is currently back in the series. To this, Suniel Shetty claimed that nobody else could play his role in Raju. Only Akshay Kumar is qualified to do so. He stated that he had pressed Akshay to make the continuation of Hera Pheri our top priority, and Akshay had concurred.
Meanwhile, Paresh Rawal tweeted in November 2022 that Kartik Aaryan had won the movie. Suniel insisted that, now that Akshay Kumar is back in the movie, Kartik never intended to take the position of Akshay Kumar. He has no idea what happened to his role.
Last but not least, Suniel Shetty promised that Hera Pheri 3 will be an emotional and humorous journey, just like the first part was. He said, “It (the first section) featured really strong emotional representations of the everyday hardships of the common man. The new Hera Pheri will only succeed, in my opinion, if the appropriate emotions are there.”
