Filmmaker Priyadarshan has finally addressed the buzz around the much-awaited Hera Pheri 3 during a recent conversation at the IIFA Utsavam 2024. Known for his expertise in comedy, Priyadarshan has teamed up with Akshay Kumar on several successful films, including Hera Pheri, Garam Masala, Bhagam Bhag, Bhool Bhulaiyaa, and De Dana Dan. Their most recent collaboration was in 2010 for Khatta Meetha, and fans are eager to see them reunite on screen.
When asked about the excitement surrounding Hera Pheri 3, Priyadarshan shared his optimism about reuniting with Akshay and the original team. “Let’s hope for the best. It’s always been a great combination. The teams have worked well with me and Akshay, and I hope it will happen again,” he said.
Besides Hera Pheri 3, Priyadarshan is also preparing for another collaboration with Akshay Kumar in Bhooth Bangla, a horror-comedy in which Akshay is reportedly set to play a magician alongside three female co-stars. “Yes, that’s what I mentioned. I hope it works out the same way,” Priyadarshan said when asked about updates on the film. Centered around themes of black magic, the project is set to begin shooting soon, with a release scheduled for 2025.
