New Delhi: Days after it was announced that a third installment will be made of the classic comedy drama 'Hera Pheri 3', enough buzz was made about the casting. After reports suggested that Akshay Kumar will not be seen in the sequel, it has now come to light that another actor, who was supposed to star in it has taken an exit route.

According to reports, serious actor Irrfan Khan was to play a don's role in this comic caper. However, due to date issues, the actor has been replaced by another class performer, Kay Kay Menon. Irrfan had a packed schedule, and could not accommodate any dates for the film, reportedly.

'Hera Pheri 3' stars Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham, Suneil Shetty and Paresh Rawal (the last two have been retained from the original star cast). The film will be directed by Neeraj Vora.
