Recently, Akshay Kumar revealed the reason why he would not be a part of Hera Pheri 3, and also apologised to fans for the same. “Hera Pheri has been a part of me. Like a lot of people, I have good memories. Mujhe bhi dukh hota hai (I feel bad as well) that in so many years, part 3 hasn’t been made. But like I said we have to dismantle things. The film was offered to me but I was not satisfied with the script. I have to do what people want to see. That is why I backed out. I took a step behind. It is a part of my life and journey for me. I am also very sad that I can’t do it. But I am not happy with how the creative things have shaped out,” he said at HT Leadership Summit.

Akshay is the latest Bollywood celebrity to attend the film festival in Jeddah. Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra graced the opening ceremony, while Kareena Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan and Sonam Kapoor were part of the second day. Hrithik Roshan and Ranbir Kapoor are also expected to join the festival.
