Phir Hera Pheri
Phir Hera Pheri (translation: Foul Play Once Again) is a 2006 Indian Hindi-language comedy film written and directed by Neeraj Vora. The film serves as the sequel to Hera Pheri (2000) and the second installment of the Hera Pheri franchise. The film stars an ensemble cast of Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal (reprising their roles from the previous film), Bipasha Basu, Rimi Sen, Sharat Saxena, Johnny Lever, Rajpal Yadav, Milind Gunaji, Manoj Joshi and Razak Khan.
Following the events of the previous film, a twist of fate changes the lives of Raju (Kumar), Shyam (Shetty) and Baburao (Rawal) when they get cheated by a fraudster, Anuradha (Basu). They must now find another way to repay the money borrowed from a dreaded gangster, Tiwari (Saxena).
Upon its release on 9 June 2006, the film was a major commercial success, becoming the one of the highest grossing film of the year. Over the years, the film has attained a cult status, often celebrated for quotable lines in meme culture and rewatch value. The film is loosely based on the British film Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998).
The film opens with a prologue bringing the audience up to speed on the story, stating that each has suffered a personal loss despite their new riches. Ghanshyam alias Shyam, lost his only love Anuradha Shivshanker Panikar in an accident, Raju lost his ailing mother, and Baburao Ganpatrao Apte having nothing to lose in the first place - lost the little traces of common sense that he did possess.
The three men are living a lavish life in a massive mansion and splurging on various luxuries. One day, Raju hears about an idea for doubling his wealth in 21 days from a con woman, Anuradha Munjal, who is claiming to be a bank manager, and convinces Shyam and Baburao to go along with it. Raju first arranges for ₹30 lakh from Shyam and Baburao and then a further ₹50 lakh by selling their bungalow. He convinces a small-time goon, Pappu, to contribute the remaining balance of ₹20 lakh so that he can come up with the minimum deposit of ₹1 crore, which Anuradha has promised to double.
Three weeks after investing the money, the three of them discover they were duped and are now in financial ruin. As they no longer own their bungalow, the trio have to live in a chawl (tenement). Pappu arrives at the bungalow the next day to pick up his portion of the money only to find the bungalow occupied by a Parsi gun collector. Pappu is now in trouble because he had borrowed money from a lisping but dreaded gangster, Tiwari, who will kill him if he doesn't pay up. When he comes across Raju, he pretends to be sympathetic upon hearing that they were scammed. He tricks him and brings the three to Tiwari, who tells them they have to come up with the money or else they will be killed. As they are escorted home by Tiwari's goons, the three manage to escape. The trio are about to leave the city when Raju remembers that he owes rent to Anjali, the chawl accountant's daughter. They head over to her house and are surprised to find that she is Pappu's sister. Tiwari's goons show up and kidnap Anjali because Pappu had not returned the money. Feeling guilty that he is the one who got Anjali in trouble, Raju decides that he will go to Tiwari and try to get her freed. Shyam and Baburao refuse to leave without him and decide to stay as well. The three go back to Tiwari to ask him to release Anjali, and Tiwari tells them to bring the money in order to release Anjali.
Raju, Shyam, and Baburao now have three days to come up with ₹40 lakh. Raju overhears the neighbor, Munna Bhai, plotting to steal drugs from his rival, Nanji Bhai, and, wrongly assuming they are talking about stealing money, plans to steal from Munna Bhai. Meanwhile, Tiwari sends Pappu along with his men to steal a collection of 15 antique guns from the Parsi gun collector. However, Pappu's men unwittingly sells the three most valuable guns from the collection (worth ₹5–6 crore) to Kachra Seth, a scrap dealer who also deals in stolen goods, to Tiwari's anger. Raju, Shyam and Baburao, in turn, purchased the three guns locally from Kachra Seth for their mission. The trio barely succeed but are confused when they don't find money inside. Raju recognizes the drugs and tells them that they are worth at least ₹3 crores (thirty million). They think that if they can sell them to Kachra Seth and pay off Tiwari, they can also become rich.
The trio and Anjali then run into Anuradha, who reveals the entire scam was hatched by Kabira's (the gangster from the first film) close aide Chhota Chetan to get revenge on the trio and that the only reason she went along with it was that they were holding her niece hostage (Anuradha's sister was Kabira's gang member and part of the first film's kidnapping plot). Their money was converted to diamonds to pay the ransom, but she fled with them once she discovered her niece had escaped and with her uncle, hid them under a decoration of a circus train (named "Kook-Doo-Koo"). Meanwhile, Kachra Seth takes Raju's drug sample to his boss, Nanji Bhai, who identifies it to have been stolen from himself. He forces Kachra Seth to make the trio return the drugs to him in exchange for commission. Munna Bhai accidentally discovers the remaining drugs stolen by the trio at their house and takes them back along with the three guns. Tiwari's henchmen also reach to collect the money at the same time the group returns, and beat up Munna Bhai's henchmen and kidnap the girls.
