Kartik Aaryan To Join The Cast of Hera Pheri 3

Mumbai, November 11 - Bollywood star Kartik Aaryan is reportedly set to headline the much-awaited 3rd installment of the iconic blockbuster Hera Pheri 3. Akshay Kumar, who played the character of Raju in the first two films, has pulled out from "Hera Pheri 3" and Kartik will replace him.

According to Pinkvilla, the paperwork has been completed and Kartik has signed the dotted lines to come on board as Raju in this Firoz Nadiadwala production film. The report further says that the makers are keen to rope Anees Bazmee to direct the film. Kartik and Bazmee collaborated for "Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2" which was a big hit.
