In a recent interview with Variety India, the producer of Hera Pheri 3 assured that the project is progressing without Priyadarshan's involvement. However, Priyadarshan later reiterated his departure from the film, expressing skepticism about the movie ever making it to the big screen. The situation is further complicated by the ownership rights of the film.

They have contested Firoz Nadiadwala's rights to make the sequel, Phir Hera Pheri (2006), and have now raised concerns over the production of Hera Pheri 3.
