Akshay Kumar DENIES Hera Pheri 3 rift with Paresh Rawal was "publicity stunt": "There were some ups and downs. But now everything is solved"

The third instalment of the cult 2000s comedy Hera Pheri has been making headlines ever since it was announced. After months of speculation, legal battles, and statements from the cast, Akshay Kumar has finally cleared the air, bringing some much-needed good news for fans.
