So far, the makers have not decided on any release date. However, Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal and Suniel Shetty led Hera Pheri 3 is rumored to arrive in theatres in the second half of 2026.
Akshay Kumar is pumped up!
As most know, Akshay has had a tough few in recent years. He’s had almost 13 releases in the post-Covid era, but only 2 of them have been successful so far. Sky Force is currently running in theatres and may soon be added to the list.
Akshay Kumar reportedly plans to give his heart and soul to Hera Pheri 3. He is “emotionally attached” to the franchise and will leave no stone unturned to give fans a comedy film that will be cherished for a long time.
