The buzz surrounding Hera Pheri 3 refuses to die down, and the latest controversy involves writer Rohan Shankar, who has now addressed rumours about his alleged exit from the much-anticipated comedy sequel. After several reports claimed that the writer had stepped away from the project, Shankar has firmly denied the speculation, calling it misleading.
Taking to social media, the writer clarified that the claims were baseless and stemmed from a misinterpretation of his earlier comments. He stated, “Some fake news is being spread in my name about a big film. It’s completely false and has almost no truth in it. A simple interview about my work and cinema has been taken out of context and made into a clickbait headline. Please ignore it.”
The confusion appears to have originated from a recent interview where Shankar spoke about the challenges surrounding the film’s development. While he acknowledged being in discussions for the screenplay, he also pointed out that the project is currently facing delays due to ongoing legal complications. His remarks about scheduling issues, including director Priyadarshan being occupied with other projects, were reportedly misconstrued as confirmation of his exit.
