This wish comes a day after Paresh Rawal exited Hera Pheri 3. While it was said that the actor quit the film because of the creative differences, he clarified on X and wrote, 'I wish to put it on record that my decision to step away from Hera Pheri 3 was not due to creative differences. I REITERATE THAT THERE ARE NO CREATIVE DISAGREEMENT WITH THE FILM MAKER. I hold immense love, respect, and faith in Mr. Priyadarshan the film director."
Suniel Shetty spoke about Paresh's exit to Zoom and said, 'A film becomes iconic when the audience remembers the characters. This is not Suniel, Akshay, and Paresh; it was Raju, Shyam, and Babu Rao. Nobody can replace those 3 characters, and even when Kartik was considered for the movie, he was never going to replace Raju; it was for a different role altogether.'
Akshay Kumar also spoke about his feud with Paresh Rawal at the Housefull 5 trailer launch and shared, 'Jo bhi kuch hai I don't think this is a place where I will talk about it because it is a very serious matter. It is a matter which is going to be handled by the court so I don't think I am going to speak about it here.'

Is Himesh Reshammiya not happy with Paresh Rawal's exit from Hera Pheri 3? Singer REACTS during Mumbai concert
Whenever we talk about Hera Pheri, it would be incomplete without the mention of Baburao. The iconic character of Bollywood cinemas, which was brought to life by Paresh Rawal became will always be remembered irrespective of his being a part of the franchise or not. In the past couple of days, fans' dreams have been shattered after the news of his exit came to the forefront. From Suniel Shetty, Akshay Kumar to Johnny Lever, everyone has reacted to this. And now the latest name added to this list is that of Himesh Reshammiya, who did not leave a moment to praise the star for his brilliant performance in parts 1 and 2. During his concert in Mumbai, Himesh Reshammiya made sure to leave the crowd dancing to his tunes. In a brief moment, the singer praised Paresh Rawal, right before he was about to sing a song from Phir Hera Pheri. He said, 'Hera Pheri 1 he was fantastic, Hera Pheri 2 he was fantastic, he was also great in…' and he started singing the Jumme Raat song from the second part of the franchise. Well, we are sure that if Paresh Rawal does not play Baburao in Hera Pheri 3, then the experience of watching this comedy caper is just not going to be the same for everyone. For the unversed, Bollywood Hungama reported that Paresh Rawal has exited Hera Pheri 3 over creative differences between him and the makers. Later, the actor himself took to X (formerly Twitter) and shared that his decision to step away from Hera Pheri 3 wasn't due to creative differences. He also shared having 'immense love, respect and faith' in filmmaker Priyadarshan. Earlier, Pinkvilla exclusively reported that the producers of Hera Pheri 3, Cape of Good Films, have sent a legal notice to Paresh Rawal for damages of Rs 25 crore. A source shared, 'Cape of Good Films had procured the rights of Hera Pheri 3 from multiple stakeholders and even repaid all the debts existing on the film. The amount splurged was in crores, as the intent was to get back Hera Pheri on the big screen after 20 years for the audience. Paresh's unprofessional behaviour has cost a bomb to the film.' Well, amidst all this, we really hope Rawal returns as Baburao in the 3rd part.

Rajpal Yadav isn't afraid of Bollywood remakes falling short, says
New Delhi [India], May 31 (ANI): The ever-smiling king of comedy, Rajpal Yadav, best known for his iconic comic timing in films like 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa,' 'Chup Chup Ke,' and 'Bhagam Bhag', has shared his thoughts on the current Bollywood trend of remakes and sequels. Asked if he ever worries about sequels or remakes not living up to the original films, Yadav shared that he doesn't see any point in being scared. He added that every film is an opportunity -- for filmmakers, actors, and audiences; hence, cinema should bring fresh ideas regardless of whether it's a remake or an original movie. 'Darne se kya fayeda. Bana hi daali hai toh flop hojaegi, isse jyada kya hojaega. Paisa bhi lagta hai aur audience nayi film dekhne jaati hai aur abhineta ko bhi naya kirdaar jeene ka saubhagya milta hai. Toh cinema jab bhi banein, toh naya bane.' (What's the point of being scared? If it's already made, at worst it will flop -- what else can happen? It takes money, the audience goes to see a new film, and the actor gets to live a new character. So whenever cinema is made, it should be new.),' Yadav told ANI in an interview. Rajpal's take comes at a time when Bollywood is seeing a wave of sequels. Films like Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, Hera Pheri 3, and Housefull 5 are lined up for release. Rajpal Yadav's journey in films began with a breakthrough role in a film by Ram Gopal Varma. Later, he became popular for his slapstick comedy roles. He acted in movies like 'Ek Aur Ek Gyarah,' 'Mujhse Shaadi Karogi,' Bhagam Bhag, and many others. Next, the actor will be seen in 'Bhooth Bangla,' a horror-comedy directed by Priyadarshan, which stars Akshay Kumar. The film is already one of the most awaited movies as it marks the return of the hit duo of Priyadarshan and Akshay after 15 years. (ANI)
