The much loved bromance of Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham will soon come alive on silver screen once again with their next outing "Hera Pheri 3."

Along with the duo, actors Sunil Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Anil Kapoor and Tanisha Mukerji were also seen at the star cast announcement event on Monday.

The "Hera Pheri" franchise, which is a well-known comedy drama of Rawal, Shetty and Akshay Kumar, is coming up with its third installment. However, this time the trio won't be together as Akshay was missing from the event.

A few new faces have been added to the star cast including "Bigg Boss 7" contestant Tanisha Mukerji, Anil Kapoor and the "Dostana" boys.

After seven long years, the most awaited jodi Jr. Bachchan and Abraham will be back together on-screen.

"Neeraj Vora who directed the sequel, 'Phir Hera Pheri', will be directing the third part too. Sunil and Paresh from the original cast will also be part of the film," Mid-Day quoted a source as saying. 

The director reportedly felt Abraham could do good comedy after watching few portions of his film "Welcome Back" which is an upcoming sequel of Akshay Kumar starrer "Welcome."

"He also feels that Abhishek is quite a natural at doing funny scenes. So, there was no doubt about signing on the lead actors," the source added.
