Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi said that he co-starred with Akshay Kumar in both Welcome 3 and Jolly LLB 3. What had been circulating on the grapevine for a while has finally been confirmed by Arshad Warsi. The actor is involved in the planning of Welcome’s third installment. The actor also provided an update on the start date for Jolly LLB 3’s filming. He will reunite with Jolly LLB 2 actor Akshay Kumar for the courtroom drama.

In the second season of the psychological thriller online series Asur, Arshad Warsi was most recently spotted. On 2 March 2020, Voot broadcast the first season’s premiere. On 1 June 2023, JioCinema broadcast the second season’s premiere. Arshad discussed his forthcoming endeavors while promoting the show.

Arshad was recently questioned by Hindustan Times about why fans haven’t seen much of him on the big screen in recent years. The 55-year-old actor confessed that he has been waiting for Welcome 3 to be produced on a bigger budget and with a cast without any major stars. He stated: “The scale of Welcome 3: the cost, the climax, is unreal. It is an insanely larger-than-life theatrical film that I will be a part of. It has me, Akshay Kumar, Sanju (Sanjay Dutt), Paresh Rawal, and lots of other people.”

Arshad also disclosed information regarding Jolly LLB 3. He stated: “We start shooting in January. It is one of those films that tell you the truth of how things run in the world, good versus bad.” When Arshad was asked about his absence from the second part of the Jolly LLB franchise, the actor replied, “I have no idea, I have a feeling the makers wanted to upscale the film. I remember I told Subhash (Kapoor, director) also ‘You should do it with Akshay. If you want to show a crowd in a courtroom, with me it will be 500, with Akshay you will get 5000’ Somewhere, the production people realized ‘let’s get a bigger star’…People liked to see me, so I am back. People will enjoy seeing me and Akshay.”
