After Akshay Kumar’s exit, Kartik Aaryan has come on board for Hera Pheri 3.
Now, rumours are rife that the Freddy actor might allegedly get dropped from the much-awaited 3rd installment of the Hera Pheri franchise.
A media report allegedly claimed that Kartik is being ousted from Hera Pheri 3 due to his controlling nature, leading producer Firoz Nadiadwala positively talking to Akshay again. The report quoted –
“Kartik Aaryan’s reportedly old and dominating habit of trying to control the shots on every film he has signed, much to the producer’s frustration.”
However, the latest media report states otherwise. As per ETimes, reports of Kartik being dropped from Hera Pheri 3 are FALSE! As the report states, neither is Kartik out of the project, nor is Akshay Kumar thinking of getting back in.
“Kartik had in principle said yes. Nothing was officially decided. And Kartik may opt out entirely if the confusion continues. Where is the question of trying to control the shots when there is no script in the first place?”
– a source informed the daily.
“As for Akshay Kumar, for the umpteenth time, he has not part of Hera Pheri 3, not now, not in the future,” the source concluded.
Reportedly, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 director Anees Bazmee is in talks to helm this project.
