Suniel Shetty has once again reminded fans why some Bollywood friendships feel timeless. The actor shared a warm birthday tribute to veteran performer Paresh Rawal on May 30, 2026, celebrating his wit, legacy, and unmatched comic timing that continues to define generations of cinema lovers.
In his heartfelt message, Suniel Shetty wrote, “Proof that wit never retires, timing never ages & legends never go out of style. Happy Happy Birthday Pareshji!!! Baburao may belong to the world…but the love and respect for you is deeply personal.” The message instantly struck a nostalgic chord with fans, especially those who continue to associate Paresh Rawal with his iconic role as Baburao Ganpatrao Apte from Hera Pheri.
The post also featured a striking photo of the two actors in tactical gear near a military helicopter, hinting at their recent or upcoming on-screen collaboration. The visual sparked curiosity among fans, suggesting that the duo may be working together in a high-energy action-comedy setting rather than just revisiting their classic comedic avatars.
Social media quickly flooded with reactions, with many fans wishing Paresh Rawal good health and longevity. A large section of users also used the opportunity to once again demand Hera Pheri 3, proving that the Baburao legacy remains one of the most beloved comedic identities in Indian cinema.
Interestingly, the duo will soon be seen together in Welcome to the Jungle, a major ensemble entertainer scheduled for theatrical release on 26 June 2026. Directed by Ahmed Khan and produced by Firoz A. Nadiadwala, the film brings together a massive star cast including Akshay Kumar, Jacqueline Fernandez, Disha Patani, Arshad Warsi, Suniel Shetty, and Paresh Rawal.
The project has already begun generating buzz for its large-scale comedy-action setup, with music promotions also underway. One of the recently released tracks, Ghis Ghis Ghis, features Akshay Kumar alongside Bhojpuri star Akshara Singh, adding a high-energy musical layer to the film’s marketing campaign.
As anticipation builds for Welcome to the Jungle, Suniel Shetty and Paresh Rawal’s reunion—both on and off screen—continues to fuel excitement. Whether it’s nostalgia from Hera Pheri or curiosity about their new avatars, audiences clearly aren’t done celebrating this iconic duo just yet.
