Although Farhad has established his command over his craft in the past, fans of the franchise have harboured concerns about the new addition, given that the previous editions were helmed by Priyadarshan and the late Neeraj Vohra. Talking about the same, Farhad said that the official announcement of him serving as a director is yet to come. The director added that he will talk about it when it happens.

A video of Akshay shooting with Paresh and Suniel surfaced online but it was later clarified that he had only shot for a promo for the film.

In a recent social media post, Suniel Shetty also spoke about the film. he wrote, ‘So Hera Pheri 3 is finally happening! Look forward to being back on set with Pareshji and Akki (Akshay). Like all good things, this one took some time, but it’s a relief to finally have an answer to this question!’

He added, ‘Films are such a huge part of our culture, and yet, not many understand what goes into making a film. Apart from creative challenges, the business model and needs of the movie business make it as challenging as any other.’
