Priyadarshan, who was supposed to direct Hera Pheri 3 , revealed that Akshay Kumar had tears in his eyes when he came to know about Paresh Rawal's exit. read more The official announcement of Hera Pheri 3 cheered all cinegoers as they were excited to see the iconic characters of Raju (Akshay Kumar), Shyam (Suniel Shetty) and Baburao (Paresh Rawal) on the big screen. However, the sudden exit of the latter shocked and disappointed everyone. Now, filmmaker Priyadarshan, who was supposed to direct Hera Pheri 3 , revealed that Akshay Kumar had tears in his eyes when he came to know about Paresh Rawal's exit. And the actor said in a recent interview with Pinkvilla, 'Whatever is happening is happening in front of you. Keeping my fingers crossed. I hope everything goes well, and it will. That I know for sure.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD What Priyadarshan said 'All our contracts were signed. Ten days ago, Suniel, Akshay, and Paresh shot a scene and the IPL [Indian Premier League] teaser. It was only after we unanimously agreed to do Hera Pheri 3 that Akshay bought the franchise's rights. Akshay had tears in his eyes when he asked me, 'Priyan, why is Paresh doing this to us?' Akshay shouldn't suffer financial losses because Paresh walked out on a whim. I understand that he will have to take whatever action is required,' Priyadarshan told Mid-Day. The filmmaker also told that he didn't stop Paresh and added, 'I didn't try to stop him because he never told me that he was leaving the project. When I tried calling him, he texted, saying, 'Please don't call me. This is my decision and it has nothing to do with you.' He also wrote that we should work together again. With me, Akshay has never cut down anybody's role. He does not interfere with a director's vision at all.'

Akshay Kumar breaks silence on 'Hera Pheri 3' controversy with Paresh Rawal: 'Whatever Is happening...' Read more
The 'Hera Pheri 3' controversy continues to spark conversation among fans, as actor Akshay Kumar finally addressed the ongoing situation involving co-star Paresh Rawal . With Rawal's sudden exit from the much-anticipated third installment of the franchise, the future of the film remains uncertain. Akshay Kumar: 'Keeping My Fingers Crossed While promoting his upcoming film Kannappa, Akshay Kumar spoke to Pinkvilla about the current dispute and offered a hopeful note. ' Whatever is happening is happening in front of you. Keeping my fingers crossed. I hope everything goes well. Everything will go well only. I know, for sure,' the actor said, subtly acknowledging the turmoil without delving deep into details. Paresh Rawal's Exit Triggers Legal Drama The situation escalated after Paresh Rawal publicly withdrew from 'Hera Pheri 3'. The veteran actor, known and loved for his iconic role as Baburao Ganpatrao Apte, reportedly referred to the role as a 'gale ka fanda' in a past interview with The Lallantop. His sudden departure came after initial confirmation, prompting Akshay Kumar's production house, Cape of Good Cinema, to take legal action. Reportedly, the company has allegedly filed a Rs 25 crore lawsuit against Rawal, citing breach of commitment and disruption of timelines. In response, Paresh Rawal returned the signing amount for the film — along with interest — in a bid to close the matter on his end. Creative Differences Behind The Rift Paresh Rawal has been vocal in recent interviews about his dissatisfaction with 'Phir Hera Pheri' (2006), noting that the film lost the essence of humour that made the original so successful. He expressed concerns about repeating past mistakes and had insisted on seeing a complete script before officially committing to the third part. Akshay Kumar's recent success Meanwhile, on the work front, Akshay Kumar is basking in the success of his latest outing 'Housefull 5' which is doing good box office business and earned 2.5 stars from ETimes with an official review that reads, "Barring Riteish who manages to entertain, both Abhishek Bachchan and Akshay Kumar get little to play with as far as words are concerned. The women have nothing much to do except for upping the glam quotient and being the butt of several adult jokes. Sonam Bajwa, Fardeen Khan and Dino Morea act sensibly. Shreyas Talpade , Johnny Lever and Chunky Panday are criminally wasted. Talpade just disappears for a major part of the film, but we can't expect logic here. Can we? Note: The film has two climaxes 5A and 5B, both versions have different killers, while rest stays the same. Won't make much of a difference which version you choose but if you must, go for 5A."

Akshay Kumar Dodges Tom Cruise Comparisons: ‘My Stunts Are Inspired By Tom & Jerry'
Last Updated: Akshay, who has long performed his own stunts, laughed when asked about his viral aeroplane sequence from Khiladi 420, which resurfaced around the release of Dead Reckoning. Akshay Kumar, known as Bollywood's original action star, recently credited an unexpected source for inspiring some of his most daring stunts – Tom & Jerry! In a new interview with Pinkvilla, the Housefull 5 actor opened up about drawing action ideas from the classic cartoon duo and also reacted to comparisons with Hollywood icon Tom Cruise. Akshay, who has long performed his own stunts, laughed when asked about his viral aeroplane sequence from Khiladi 420, which resurfaced around the release of Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning. While fans noted similarities between the two plane stunts, Akshay humbly dodged the comparison and instead credited his love for Tom & Jerry as his true influence. 'You know where I draw all this inspiration from? You will not believe it from Tom & Jerry," he said with a smile. Calling it 'the most violent thing," Akshay added, 'It is apparently made for children, but actually, if you look, there is so much action." Recalling how the cartoon influenced specific scenes in his films, Akshay shared, 'I remember Tom coming from the helicopter, hanging and picking up Jerry – I did that in Sabse Bada Khiladi. Then, Tom is hanging on a plane, which is there in Khiladi 420." He even noted a Khatron Ke Khiladi stunt was inspired by a moment where Tom and Jerry enjoy wine mid-air while lying in a hammock beneath a plane. 'It is so violent. Please try to understand — it is a violent film you are showing your children," he quipped. First Published:
