Paresh Rawal Exits Hera Pheri 3 Over Creative Differences

In a disappointing update for Hera Pheri fans, veteran actor Paresh Rawal has confirmed he will not be part of Hera Pheri 3.

Known for playing the iconic Baburao Ganpatrao Apte, Paresh revealed in a statement “Yes, it’s a fact”, confirming his exit from the film. Reports suggest that creative differences between him and the makers led to the decision.

Paresh Rawal’s portrayal of Baburao with his thick glasses, quirky behavior and hilarious one-liners made him one of Indian cinema’s most loved comedy characters.

His chemistry with Akshay Kumar and Suniel Shetty was key to the franchise’s success. Fans are heartbroken especially since the trio’s on-screen bond was a big reason for the films popularity.

Interestingly, Akshay Kumar had also briefly left the project but rejoined later. Fans now hope the same happens with Paresh Rawal, as Hera Pheri 3 moves forward without its beloved Baburao.
