While fans await with bated breath the release of Hera Pheri 3<\/a><\/strong>, Paresh Rawal, in a recent interaction, expressed his fatigue over acting in the sequels of the iconic film. The actor also shared that he even approached filmmakers Vishal Bhardwaj and R. Balki to give him a role that would help him break away from the image of Hera Pheri\u2019s iconic character, Babu Rao.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Lallantop, Paresh said, \u201cMy Hera Pheri role is a gale ka fanda. I went to Vishal Bhardwaj in 2007 after in 2006 Phir Hera Pheri released. I told him, \u2018I want a release from the image that has been set by this film.\u2019 I asked him to give me a role in the same get-up but a completely different role. I\u2019m an actor, mujhe fasna nahi hai aise daldal mein. But Vishal told me I don\u2019t do remake of characters. Then I went to R. Balki in 2022 with the same request. I asked him to give a different character in the same get-up. I told him, \u2018I feel suffocated. I feel happy, but it ties me down. I want liberation from this. This is very bad.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Paresh Rawal compared Hera Pheri\u2019s sequel to the sequel Lage Raho Munna Bhai, which in his view is a better follow-up to an iconic film. He said, \u201cYou cook up the same thing when you make sequels after sequels, not like Lage Raho Munna Bhai was to Munna Bhai MBBS where you take characters in a different direction. Everybody wants to encash on sequels but do something different with the character that has Rs 500 crore worth goodwill. Why not fly with it? But there\u2019s mental bankruptcy or mental lethargy. I\u2019m doing the sequel because I don\u2019t want the film to get stuck but there is no happiness.\u201d<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t the first time Paresh Rawal has spoken about his dissatisfaction with the Hera Pheri sequels. Earlier, in an interaction with Siddharth Kannan, he admitted that Hera Pheri lost its \u2018innocence\u2019 in its sequel. He said, \u201cSorry to say, but woh film nahi bani thi bara bar (the film wasn\u2019t that good). I would tell Neeraj Vohra (director), tu bhar raha hai ismein (you\u2019re overstuffing this film with sequences), it isn\u2019t required. I asked him to keep the simplicity that was there in the first film. It will get messy if you overfill the film. People will laugh at anything; they will laugh if somebody is running naked, but we don\u2019t have to run naked. The sense of proportion should be on you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The original Hera Pheri film released in 2000 and was a major hit, catapulting into a cult classic. It was directed by Priyadarshan. Phir Hera Pheri, helmed by Neeraj Vora, released in 2006 and was a major commercial success. The third part of the franchise is also directed by Priyadarshan.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
