Be it the die-hard fans of this iconic comedy franchise or the star cast, everyone is hoping for his return.

Johnny Lever said this about Paresh Rawal
In fact, during his recent conversation Johnny Lever said, "I think they should take the film, sit and talk and then solve the matter because the fans will miss Paresh ji a lot in the film and it will not be as much fun without him, so they should talk and solve the matter. In my opinion, this is the right thing."
Akshay Kumar had said this about Paresh Rawal
Recently, during the trailer launch event of Housefull 5, Akshay Kumar was asked about his rift with Paresh. Responding to the media's question, Akshay Kumar said, "I have worked with him for the last 30 years. I have been working with him for 32 years. We are very good friends. He is a great actor and I respect him a lot. I don't think this is the place to talk about this issue. This is a serious matter and whatever has to happen will be decided in the court. So I am not in favor of saying anything on this here".
Paresh Rawal broke his silence after receiving a legal notice
My lawyer, Ameet Naik, has sent an appropriate response regarding my rightful termination and exit. Once they read my response all issues will be laid to rest.
