Akshay Kumar is fondly called Khiladi Kumar because of the powerful and shocking stunts he performs in his films. However, he has also made the audience laugh a lot with his comedy films. One of them was the 2007 horror-comedy film Bhool Bhulaiyaa, which later became a classic. After the huge success of the film, two sequels were made. However, Kumar was not included in them, much to the disappointment of his fans. While talking exclusively to Pinkvilla, the senior actor explained the reason behind this.
Akshay Kumar and Veer Pahadia recently sat down for a fun-filled chat with Pinkvilla. While they talked about their upcoming action-thriller Sky Force, the celebs also answered some questions from fans. Someone in the audience said that they did not watch Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and 3 because Khiladi Kumar was not a part of it.
When asked why the senior actor parted ways with the Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise, the actor said, “Son, mujhe nikal diya tha. (I was removed) that’s all.”
Watch the full interview below:
Well, for those who want to see Kumar in more comedy films, here’s good news. Speaking to us, the Singham Again actor gave a big update on his next comic character, Hera Pheri 3. The veteran actor revealed that like his fans, he too is waiting for Hera Pheri 3.
He further added, “Even I am waiting for Hera Pheri 3 to start. I don’t know, but if everything goes well then it will start this year.” The actor further added, “When we started Hera Pheri, we had no idea that it would become so popular. Even when I saw the film I did not understand. Yes, it was fun, but none of us expected that the characters of Babu Bhaiya, Raju and Shyam would become cult.
In the same conversation, Akshay also praised his co-star Paresh Rawal and said that he is a very funny person in real life too. “We were shooting for Bhoot Bangla in Jaipur and I had a lot of fun with him. We had a lot of fun during Hera Pheri, but there are some things that can’t be said on camera,” he concluded.
