The third part of the 'Hera Pheri' series, which is counted among Bollywood's most iconic comedy films, is the center of discussion these days. While on the one hand fans are excited about the release of the film, on the other hand the controversy related to the film is also gaining momentum. The most discussed news is that Paresh Rawal, who played the memorable character of Baburao Ganpatrao Apte, will no longer be a part of 'Hera Pheri 3'.

Recently, a social media user made an emotional appeal to Paresh Rawal on Instagram and wrote, "Sir, think once again... you are the real hero of this film." To this, Paresh Rawal replied, “No… Hera Pheri has three heroes.” His answer not only shocked the fans, but also made it clear that he is no longer a part of the film. This answer is becoming increasingly viral on social media and fans are seeing huge disappointment.

According to sources, there were some financial and legal differences between Paresh Rawal and the film's producer Akshay Kumar. It is being said that after Paresh Rawal left the film, Akshay Kumar took legal action against him, in response to which Paresh Rawal returned the signing amount along with interest to the filmmakers. This makes it clear that the matter was not just about creative disagreement, but a serious dispute.

Now the biggest question that arises is who will play the character of Baburao in 'Hera Pheri 3'? Many users on social media believe that Pankaj Tripathi can be a strong choice for this character. Seeing his comic timing and acting ability, many fans feel that he can do justice to this challenging role. However, no official announcement has been made by the makers of the film so far.

'Hera Pheri' and 'Phir Hera Pheri' gave a new identity to Indian comedy cinema. The trio of Baburao, Shyam and Raju not only tickled the people but also left a deep mark in their memories. In such a situation, expectations are very high for the third part. But when an important member of this trio is not a part of the film, the question is bound to arise whether the film will be able to repeat the same old magic?
