(My point is that when something reaches so many people, you need to be extra careful. It is our responsibility towards the audience because the audience is sitting here and loves it so much. You can't take things lightly. Do hard work and deliver.)
Further, he mentioned that all issues are resolved. "To mera yahi hai ki bhaiya sab aaye saath me sab mehnat kar, bas aur kuch nahi. Resolved. Hua kuch nahi hai! It is all resolved. (So my point is that Bhaiya, everyone should come together and work hard, nothing else. It is resolved. Nothing has happened! It is all resolved.)"
The actor went on to add that Hera Pheri 3 will 100% return to the big screens. He quipped, "Pahle bhi aane hi wali thi, lekin kya hai ki ek dusre ko thoda fine tune karna padta hai. (laughs). First of all, all of them are creative people... Like Priyadarshan hai, Akshay hai yaa Sunil hai, they all are friends for many many years.
(It was happening earlier also, but the thing is that one has to fine-tune the other a little. (laughs). First of all, all of them are creative people... Like Priyadarshan, Akshay, or Sunil, they have all been friends for many, many years.)
As the OMG actor himself confirmed his return to the franchise. Fans are expecting a banger movie with the OG trio of Hera Pheri 3 - Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, and Suniel Shetty, with Priyadarshan helming the threequel.

Meet actor who did odd jobs for education but now has net worth of Rs 26 crore and owns sea-facing apartment
Not every actor is born with a silver spoon or enters the industry because of a godfather. Some start from nowhere and make a mark for themselves in the industry. Today, in our 'Meet the actor' segment, we are going to talk about one such actor who belonged to a lower-middle-class family and faced numerous financial struggles during his growing-up years. But today, he is one of the most bankable actors in the industry, and fans love him. We are talking about Vikrant Massey. Vikrant was born on April 3, 1987, to a Sikh mother and a Christian father. He has an older brother who embraced Islam and took the name Moeen. Despite a multi-religious family background, the actor is not religious. His family was not financially well-off. The actor has revealed in several interviews how his father struggled to make ends meet. His mother was a homemaker, and his father worked on a construction site, earning a low salary. As stated by Vikrant Massey, his father's salary would finish by the 15th of every month, and then they began their actual struggle. The Broken But Beautiful actor revealed that he took on odd jobs to contribute to his educational expenses. At a very young age, he began working and earning a living. Massey worked with Shiamak Davar's team for two years and also worked at a coffee shop in Versova at the same time. In fact, during a podcast with Samdish, the Balika Vadhu actor revealed how his close friends' behaviour changed after they visited his small house and saw plastic chairs. As they say, hard work always pays off; the same holds true for the Dil Dhadakne Do star. He made his acting debut in 2007 with Dhoom Machaao Dhoom. However, it was only after his portrayal of Shyam Singh in Balika Vadhu in 2009 that he gained widespread recognition. After working in a couple of hit shows, Massey made his big-screen debut with Vikramaditya Motwane's Lootera in 2013 alongside Ranveer Singh. Since then, there was no looking back for him.
