According to PinkVilla, Akshay Kumar has been thinking to bring back his most loved franchises including Hera Pheri, Welcome and Awara Pagal Deewana.
A source reported, “Over the years, Akshay Kumar and comedy have proven to be a lethal combo and the actor has delivered few of the most iconic characters for Hindi cinema in this space, which have formed a part of pop culture too. Three of his many loved characters are Raju from Hera Pheri, Guru Gulab Khatri from Awara Pagal Deewana, and Rajiv from Welcome. Come 2023, and he will be revisiting these characters one after the other with Hera Pheri 3, Awara Pagal Deewana 2, and Welcome 3”.
If sources are to be believed the talks to bring these projects to life were going on for a while now, however, seems like things are finally moving in the right direction. Kumar and his team will work closely to revive these projects.
The insider said, “Akshay and Firoz have had multiple meetings over the last month to get everything in place for these projects. The idea is to revive the three franchises and bring back the Hindi cinema audience in a big way.”
They further added, “The three films fit the bill of post Covid content to create genuine excitement in the audience. The talks are on with three top directors, and we expect an official announcement on one of the three projects in the next few months.”
