Is Hera Pheri 3 happening soon?

The director noted that the movie is in the works, but the script hasn’t been finalized yet. It is confirmed that Priyadarshan will be directing the movie, but he hasn’t worked on the script yet. The director noted that he will begin writing the script next year. He opened up on the challenges of making a third part and carrying forward a legacy.

During an interview with ETV Bharat, the director noted, “I plan to start work, start writing Hera Pheri 3 sometime next year. It is going to be very challenging to make the third part because there will be too many expectations.” He added that people are also expecting to see Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal and Suniel Shetty again in their comic avatars. He shared, “We always say that it is easy to make people cry, it is easy to scare people but to make them laugh is very difficult and that too without using double entendre dialogues ..you have to make humour so pure and identifiable.”

Opening up about writing older characters, as the sequel would happen after a long gap, Priyadarshan said, “Characters have gotten older and accordingly people should believe…these are important things. I am taking it as a challenge. Let’s see how it works.”
