Akshay Kumar BREAKS SILENCE on Paresh Rawal being called 'foolish' for quitting Hera Pheri 3: 'It will be handled by court'

Akshay Kumar has finally reacted to Paresh Rawal's exit from Hera Pheri 3, and despite their legal tussle, Khiladi Kumar defended Rawal. On Tuesday, Akshay and others launched the trailer of Housefull 5. During the press conference, a journalist asked about his reaction to Paresh's exit, and also shared that his decision to quit the iconic franchise is being called 'stupid' by netizens. 

Akshay stood up for his co-star, and said, "Sabse pehle main yeh kahunga ki using this kind of word for my co-star like 'foolish', I don't appreciate it. And that's not right. 32 saal se mein unke saath kaam karte aaya hu. He's a great actor. I really admire him. Jo bhi kuch hai. I don't think so, this is the place to discuss that. Whatever has to happen...it's a very serious matter. It's going to be handled by the court. So I don't think I am going to speak about it here."
