Shetty further asserted how the characters of these comedy hits have their own fan following, and they are bigger than the film. "The love for the sequels may differ, but not for the characters. All characters from these films, Baburao, Guru Gulab Khatri, Chhota Chatri, Manilal, and Yeda Anna, have a cult following. Film se bade ban gaye woh characters."
Films such as Hera Pheri, Awara Paagal Deewana, and Welcome can summarize the decade of 2000 as the era of best comedy films. Filmgoers are missing such rib-tickling, laugh-riot, that would entertain the audience and breaks records by laughing all along. Interestingly all three laugh riots are produced by Firoz Nadiadwala, so the crossover will surely hit major nostalgia among fans. On the work front, Suniel Shetty was last seen leaving a significant mark on OTT with the series Dharavi Bank and Hunter: Tootega Nahi Todega.
