THE JHARKHAND STORY DESK
New Delhi, June 30: Veteran actor Paresh Rawal has officially confirmed that he will be part of , marking his return alongside Akshay Kumar and Suniel Shetty in the much-anticipated third installment of the beloved comedy franchise.
Speaking on Himanshu Mehta’s podcast, Rawal revealed that earlier creative differences had now been ironed out and that the team is back together.
Rawal had surprised fans earlier this year when he announced his departure from the project. His exit had coincided with reports of legal tensions, including a ₹25 crore lawsuit filed by Akshay Kumar, who is also producing the film under his banner, Cape of Good Films. However, Rawal dismissed any lingering controversy, emphasizing that everything has been amicably resolved.

Reflecting on the journey, the actor said, “Pehle bhi aane hi waali thi (it was supposed to come before also), but it’s just that we had to fine-tune ourselves. After all, all of them are creative, be it Priyadarshan, Akshay or Suniel. They are friends for many, many, many years.”
Rawal further expressed a sense of duty toward the audience, which has shown immense love for the franchise over the years.
“I believe that when people have loved something so much, then you have to be extra careful. It is our responsibility toward the audience. The audience has given you so much adulation. You can’t take things for granted. Mehnat karke unko (film) do. So, I was of the opinion that sab saath mein aaye, mehnat kare (everyone should come together and work hard). Aur kuch nahin (Nothing else). It is all resolved now,” he added.
