Suniel Shetty is all set to appear in the upcoming period drama Kesari Veer, and the excitement around the film has grown since the trailer was recently unveiled. However, it wasn’t the only moment that caught the audience’s attention during the trailer launch event.
While speaking to the media, Shetty took everyone by surprise with his unique perspective on the iconic comedy Hera Pheri. When asked whether he and Akshay Kumar would collaborate again on a film that evokes patriotism, Shetty responded with a remark that quickly went viral. He said, “Arey woh deshbhakti ki film hai… jo desh ko khush rakhe… aaj ke bachon ki problem kya hai ki woh mentally khush nahi hai… Hera Pheri aap logon ke liye hai… taki aap mentally khush raho… aur kaho humare desh mein jo bhi hai woh extraordinary hai… It’s the best… hum logon ko hasate hai… khilate hai… gareebi mein haste bhi hai… aur hasate bhi hai… aur agar Babu Bhai jaisa partner mil jaye toh baat hi kya hai.”

His heartfelt and unconventional interpretation of the film’s impact highlights how cinema, especially comedy, can serve as a source of collective emotional upliftment and national pride. As anticipation builds around Hera Pheri 3, Sunil Shetty words offer a deeper appreciation of the legacy the original film continues to hold.
