Recently,
one
of
the
most
iconic
comedy
films
of
Hindi
film
industry,
Hera
Pheri,
completed
20
years.
The
film,
directed
by
Priyadarshan,
stars
Akshay
Kumar,
Suniel
Shetty
and
Paresh
Rawal
in
the
lead
roles.
In
a
recent
interview
with
IMDb,
Suniel
Shetty
shared
some
unknown
facts
about
the
shooting
of
the
film
and
revealed
that
he
and
Akshay
used
to
sleep
on
newspapers
on
the
sets.
He
said,
"I
don't
know
how
the
film
was
made,
it
just
happened.
We
arrived
on
the
sets
every
morning;
the
costumes
were
basically
just
stretched
and
given
to
us,
not
even
ironed.
The
director
would
ask
us
to
sleep
in
the
afternoon
on
paper,
so
we
used
to
sleep
on
newspapers.
He
(Priyadarshan)
said
I
don't
want
you
to
be
comfortable."
"When
you
get
up,
you
should
have
rested,
but
stay
uncomfortable.
So,
we
wore
no
makeup,
nothing.
Akshay
Kumar,
me
and
Paresh
ji
were
constantly
together,
constantly
rehearsing
our
lines,
constantly
improvising
and
Priyan
sir
is
one
man
who
knows
when
to
say
cut," added
Shetty.
Before
doing
Hera
Pheri,
Suniel
and
Akshay
were
majorly
touted
as
action
stars.
When
asked
how
it
felt
to
land
in
a
comedy
film
after
doing
a
series
of
action
films,
Suniel
said,
"It
was
a
film
where
action
heroes
were
doing
comedy
and
being
controlled
by
someone
like
Babu
Bhai,
so
audiences
must
have
found
that
very
amusing."
Hera
Pheri
also
starred
Tabu
and
Om
Puri
in
key
roles.
Made
on
a
budget
of
Rs7.5
crore,
the
film
had
grossed
Rs
21.4
crore
at
the
box
office.
However,
the
best
part
of
Hera
Pheri
was
not
its
collection
but,
the
several
iconic
scenes
and
dialogues
that
have
been
cracking
up
the
audience
from
the
last
20
years!
