Released in 2000 followed by Phir Hera Pheri in 2006. both the films, over the years, have managed to gain cult status for their hilarious script and entertaining performances.
The first part was directed by Priyadarshan, while the sequel was written and directed by the late Neeraj Vora. Recently there were rumours that Dream Girl director Raaj Shaandilyaa will helm Hera Pheri 3, however, Firoz Nadiadwala said the buzz isn’t true.
He also shared that the team had indeed started work on Hera Phera 3 in 2014 but had to stop after Neeraj Vora fell ill. The new film, though, will have a lot of changes in terms of story and characters.
