With the Hera Pheri film, Priyadarshan will be making a sequel for the first time in his filmmaking career. However, before him, it was Farhad Samji who was supposed to direct the film, and the internet was buzzing with rumors of Kartik Aaryan replacing Akshay Kumar.
These reports caught fire when Paresh Rawal confirmed Kartik's involvement in the film.

While responding to Akshay, Priyadarshan wrote, "Thank you so much for your wishes, Akshay. In return, I would like to give you a gift. I am willing to do Hera Pheri 3 - are you ready, Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, and Paresh Rawal?"
