Paresh Rawal Confirms Baburao’s Comeback in Hera Pheri
Paresh Rawal has recently made headlines following the news of his departure from the much-anticipated film Hera Pheri 3. Initially reported by Bollywood Hungama, the situation escalated when Akshay Kumar, the film’s producer, issued a legal notice to Rawal seeking damages. However, in a recent podcast, Rawal confirmed that the issues have been amicably resolved, assuring fans that the beloved franchise is back on track.
Resolution of Controversy
In a candid conversation with Himanshu Mehta, Paresh Rawal addressed the controversy surrounding his exit from *Hera Pheri 3*. He emphasized that there was no ongoing dispute, stating, “There’s no controversy. I believe that when people have loved something so much, then you have to be extra careful.” Rawal expressed his commitment to the audience, acknowledging their support and the responsibility that comes with it. He reassured fans that the matter had been resolved, saying, “It is all resolved now.” When asked for confirmation, he reiterated that everything was fine and noted that the team simply needed to fine-tune their collaboration. Rawal highlighted the long-standing friendships among the cast and crew, including Akshay Kumar and director Priyadarshan, which contributed to the resolution.
Background of the Dispute
The controversy began on May 16 when *Bollywood Hungama* reported that Paresh Rawal had officially quit *Hera Pheri 3*. This prompted Akshay Kumar’s production company, Cape of Good Films, to file a lawsuit against Rawal for ₹25 crores. The legal team explained their grievances, which stemmed from Rawal’s concerns over the film’s payment structure. Initially, Rawal received a signing amount of ₹11 lakhs, but he was expected to wait nearly two years for the remaining ₹14.89 crores, which would only be paid after the film’s release. This delay raised significant concerns for the veteran actor.
Akshay Kumar’s Response
Following the legal developments, Akshay Kumar addressed the situation during the trailer launch of *Housefull 5*. He refrained from discussing the matter in detail, citing its seriousness and ongoing legal implications. Kumar expressed his respect for Rawal, stating, “I have been working with him for the last 32 years. We are very good friends. He’s a great actor. I really admire him.” His comments came in response to a journalist’s remark about fans criticizing Rawal’s decision to leave the project. Kumar’s defense of Rawal highlighted the mutual respect and camaraderie that exists between the two actors, despite the recent tensions.
Looking Ahead
With the issues now resolved, fans of the *Hera Pheri* franchise can look forward to the continuation of the beloved series. The film, which has garnered a loyal following over the years, is expected to resume production soon. Both Paresh Rawal and Akshay Kumar have expressed their commitment to delivering a film that meets the high expectations of their audience. As the team gears up for the next steps, fans remain hopeful for a successful return of Baburao and the gang to the big screen.
