The comedy flick Hera Pheri, which released back in the year 2000, is one movie that never seems to lose its charm.
Therefore it was hardly a surprise when Akshay Kumar posted a selfie with Suniel Shetty that his fans got excited to see the duo in Hera Pheri sequel again.
Some even missed Paresh Rawal in the frame as the candid shot brought back memories of the film which also featured Rawal as ‘Babu Bhaiyaa’, a character that continues to rule hearts of millions.
The 50-year-old actor shared the picture, and wrote:
“This is not a throwback but takes me back to so many. As always was lovely catching up with one of my oldest friend and co-star @SunielVShetty today :),” he captioned on Twitter.

The post went viral on social media with fans flocking to leave comments. While some users demanded the duo to plan the next installment of ‘Hera Pheri’, there were few who questioned the absence of their favourite character.
Even actor Arjun Kapoor couldn’t stop himself asking where was the third piece, Paresh Rawal in the photo. “Raju aur shyam !!! But where’s Babu bhaiya ???,” Arjun wrote in a tweet.
The third installment of the popular series is mired in uncertainty after since. The film has seen changes as both John Abraham and Abhishek Bachchan were selected but later pulled out. This was followed by the death of director Neeraj Vohra in December last year.
