Hera Phera 3 can’t happen without Paresh, says Suniel
“I mean, it’s an absolute shock to me, and I’m here because I heard it yesterday, and then today, some more news came about. So, I need to call and find out, and I’m completely heartbroken because if there was one film that I was looking forward to, it was Hera Pheri, you know,” Suniel told ANI.
“It cannot happen. 100 per cent cannot happen without Paresh Rawal. It can have a 1 per cent chance without me and Akshay, but 100 per cent can’t happen without Paresh ji. No, it doesn’t. Raju and Shyam, if they’re not hammered by Babu here, it doesn’t work,” he added.
The film’s future is now uncertain following Paresh’s sudden departure from the project last week. Akshay, who also serves as a producer on Hera Pheri 3, has sued Paresh for his actions.
Suniel hopes for no animosity between Paresh, Akshay
Suniel hopes that things could be mended between Akshay and Paresh even if the film doesn’t happen.
“I believe it all will fall into place… At the same time, I am clueless because I heard (about) it through the media. I hope things can be mended. And even if the film doesn’t happen, I wouldn’t want any animosity between Paresh and Akshay,” Shetty told PTI in an interview here,” Suniel told PTI.
