New Delhi: Speculation has continued for some days that ‘Hera Pheri 3’ would also include Sanjay Dutt. His role was said to be that of Ravi Kishan's sibling. The actor has finally spoken out about it. He had finally confirmed his participation and expressed enthusiasm for the opportunity to share the screen alongside lead actors like Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, and Paresh Rawal.
New actors will make their ‘Hera Pheri’ debut in the third film in the series, which will be directed by Farhad Samji. Akshay Kumar announced Kartik Aaryan's involvement in Hera Phi 3 a year ago.
During the opening of the DawnTown store, Sanjay Dutt was questioned about his involvement in the next Firoz Nadiadwala film. When asked by reporters, Sanjay Dutt enthusiastically said, “Yes, I am doing the film. It will be exciting to shoot with the whole team. It’s a great franchise, and I’m so happy to be a part of it. Firoz aur mera rishta bhi bahut purana hai (I have a close relationship with producer Firoz Nadiadwala), and it’s great to be together with Akshay (Kumar), Suniel anna (Shetty), and Paresh (Rawal)."
The specifics of Dutt's part in the film have already been reported in Pinkvilla. An insider informed the outlet, “Sanjay Dutt plays the role of Ravi Kishan’s distant brother. Ravi Kishan is one of the many characters fooled by Raju, Shyam and Baburao in Phir Hera Pheri. Sanjay comes into the picture in the comic capacity to represent the whacky track around Ravi Kishan and Sharat Saxena.”
The third installment of the film was first rejected by Akshay, but the actor eventually confirmed his participation.
For now, it has been reported that Akshay Kumar as Raju, Suniel Shetty as Shyam and Paresh Rawal as Baburao will be returning to reprise their roles in 'Hera Pheri 3'.
