Bollywood actor Paresh Rawal shocked many fans with his sudden decision to walk out of Hera Pheri 3, the actor has also returned his signing amount.
It has not only left fans feeling sad but also many actors, including Johnny Lever, disheartened with this move by the veteran actor.
Johnny Lever, who was also a part of Hera Pheri movies, said that Paresh should reconsider his decision and return to the franchise.
He said: "Mujhe lagta hai ki kar lena chahiye unko film, baithke baat karein, matter solve karein kyunki fans bahut miss karenge Paresh ji ko film mein, maza nahi aayega na waisa unke bina. To baat karke solve karlena chahiye, meri nazar mein to yahi sahi hai." (I believe he should work in the film. Things can be sorted out with discussions, since fans will miss Paresh ji in the film, and it won't be the same without him. So they should communicate and resolve the issue)."
There were rumours that Paresh Rawal quit Hera Pheri 3 due to creative issues. But he himself took to X and denied the claims.
On May 25, Paresh Rawal personally posted an update on the matter. "My lawyer, Ameet Naik, has provided an acceptable answer to my legitimate firing and leave. "When they read my response, all issues will be resolved," the relatively non-confrontational tweet stated. The actor also repaid his signing fee with 15% interest.
Akshay Kumar's firm has also filed a lawsuit of Rs 25 crore against Paresh Rawal.
Johnny Lever will next appear in Housefull 5, alongside Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Nana Patekar, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff, Fardeen Khan, Sonam Bajwa, and Nargis Fakhri. The film, directed by Tarun Mansukhani, is set to open in theaters on June 6.
Hera Pheri 3 would have marked the return of hit trio Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal and Suniel Shetty.
