Actor Tabu hinted at her possible return to Priyadarshan’s Hera Pheri franchise in her recent Instagram story. Resharing Akshay Kumar’s post, she teased that she is all set to join the cast of the third instalment of the much-loved franchise.
Tabu shared Akshay Kumar’s birthday post for Priyadarshan and wrote, “Of course, the cast won’t be complete without me @priyadarshan.official (sic).” This comes after the director, who is currently working with Kumar in Bhooth Bangla, said that he is ready to direct Hera Pheri 3.
Here is a screenshot of the post:
Akshay had wished Priyadarshan on his 68th birthday by posting a picture from the set of Bhooth Bangla and wrote, “Happy Birthday, Priyan Sir! What better way to celebrate than by spending the day on a haunted set, surrounded by ghosts—both real and unpaid extras? Thank you for being a mentor and the only person who can make chaos look like a masterpiece. May your day be filled with fewer retakes. Wishing you a fantastic year ahead! @priyadarshan.official (sic).”
Priyadarshan responded, “Thank you so much for your wishes, Akshay. In return, I would like to give you a gift—I’m willing to do Hera Pheri 3. Are you ready, @akshaykumar, @SunielVShetty, and @SirPareshRawal? (sic).”
Paresh Rawal and Suniel Shetty also expressed their excitement. Rawal wrote, “Dear Priyan ji You are the Mother who brought this divine bundle of joy in this world ! Thanks once again for taking custody of this ever smiling baby ! Welcome sir and make the world happy again @priyadarshandir #HeraPheri 3 (sic).” Shetty posted, “Hera Pheri aur pooch pooch!!! Lets do this #HeraPheri3 (sic).” Gulshan Grover also gave his nod to the film, saying that Kabira (his character) is excited.
Released in 2000, Hera Pheri has become a cult classic. Its sequel, Phir Hera Pheri, was released in 2006. Fans have been demanding the third installment for a long time now.
