Not Kartik Aaryan but Varun Dhawan was the first choice for 'Hera Pheri 3': Reports

Since Akshay Kumar said that he had dropped out of the project and Paresh Rawal confirmed on Twitter that Kartik Aaryan was in the movie, "Hera Pheri 3" has been making headlines. The actor has made headlines for landing numerous significant jobs. But here's the most recent information on it.

Kartik was reportedly not the director's first pick, according to a report in Bollywood Hungama. Varun Dhawan was given "Hera Pheri 3" first. But out of pure respect for Akshay Kumar, he turned down the opportunity.

 After reading the script, Varun became highly interested in the idea, but he didn't want to profit from the conflict between Akshay and Firoz Nadiadwala, the producer of "Hera Pheri 3." According to the article, David Dhawan agreed with Varun's choice.

Having said that, a few days ago, Suniel Shetty had confirmed to Hindustan Times that Kartik is not playing the character of Raju which was played by Akshay Kumar. It's a new character all together.

Meanwhile, Kartik will be seen next in a number of other films like 'Satyaprem Ki Katha', 'Aashiqui 3' and more. Varun on the other hand has Nitesh Tiwari's 'Bawaal' post 'Bhediya'.
