Shoot schedule of 'Hera Pheri 3' is indefinitely postponed following the death of director Neeraj Vora's mother

The third instalment of comic caper 'Hera Pheri', which was supposed to enter its second leg of shoot today, has been put on hold for an indefinite period as director Neeraj Vora lost his mother on Friday. The schedule was to be held across many destinations in the UAE, Paris and Las Vegas.

Neha Sharma, who plays one of the lead actors, confirms the story, saying, "Since Neeraj sir's mom passed away, I am guessing the shoot will take some time to resume. We are not shooting on May 11."

The film, which also stars John Abraham, Abhishek Bachchan, Esha Gupta and two actors from the original cast, Suniel Shetty and Paresh Rawal, is slated for a December release. Neeraj and producer Firoz Nadiadwala remained unavailable for comment.
