Akshay Kumar reveals why he's not part of Hera Pheri 3: Mujhe bhi dukh hota hai

Akshay Kumar has spoken about why he is not a part of Hera Pheri 3. The actor said that there was not clarity on script.

Actor Akshay Kumar has finally shed some light on why he has decided not to be part of Hera Pheri 3. Recent reports suggested that Akshay had walked out of Hera Pheri, Welcome and Awara Pagal Deewana sequels due to lack of clarity of scripts.

Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal and Akshay Kumar made Hera Pheri a hit.

In a recent chat during Hindustan Times Leadership Summit 2022, Akshay confirmed the reports. “Hera Pheri has been a part of me. Like a lot of people, I have good memories. Mujhe bhi dukh hota hai (I feel bad as well) that in so many years, part 3 hasn't been made. But like I said we have to dismantle things. The film was offered to me but I was not satisfied with the script. I have to do what people want to see. That is why, I backed out. I took a step behind. It is a part of my life and journey for me. I am also very sad that I can't do it. But I am not happy with how the creative things have shaped out,” he said.

Akshay also spoke about how Hindi films have not been performing too well in theatres. He said, “What is happening, as per me, is that things have changed. Audience wants something different. It is our fault not the audience fault. We have to give them what they want. That is what we have to rethink. We have to dismantle what we have made and start again.”

Akshay was last seen in action adventure movie Ram Setu.
