Earlier, Hera Pheri 3 was going to directed by Neeraj Vora, but he fell ill. The makers waited for him to get better, but he tragically passed away. The team let some time pass before getting Indra Kumar onboard to direct the film. There were several changes to be made in the script, which took a while. In the meantime, Akshay and Firoz had a fallout. It was also reported that Nadiadwala didn’t have the necessary funds. However, looks like everything has been taken care of! Hera Pheri 3 will go on floors this November.
