Story -
The story of Phir Hera Pheri, starts from where the story of Hera Pheri ended and our 3 characters - BRGR Apte(Babu Rao Ganpat Rao Apte)(Paresh Rawal), Shyam(Sunil Shetty) and Raju(Akshay Kumar), become rich after saving the grand-daughter of Devi Prasad(Khulbushan Kharbhanda) from the clutches of Kabira(Gulshan Grover). Also, they manage to take the Rs.40 Lakhs from Kabira. In the end, when Raju, Shyam and Babu Rao are being taken away by the police, Devi Prasad steps in and says them to keep their Rs.40 Lakh with them as a reward for saving his grand-daughter. Thats where the story of Phir Hera Pheri begins. Although Kabira, Devi Prasad and Anuradha(Tabu) are not there in the movie, still their presence can be felt in the movie.
Some years go by and Raju, Shyam and Babu Rao, now have Rs.80 Lakh with them(Rs.50 Lakh in the form of their Bungalow and Rs.30 Lakh as cash with them), but Raju, loses his mother in an accident and Shyam, loses his love Anuradha(Tabu) in another accident. Babu Rao, who has nothing to lose, loses his brain and lives as a poor-man in a bungalow taking water using a bucket from the swimming pool and taking bath and still wears the same dhoti and keeps the same telephone. Also, his "uthale baba" dialogues are still there where he says "Arre mere ko nahi, in dono ko uthale". Shyam, is the simple character from Hera Pheri except that he has longer hairs this time.
Raju, after getting the money, becomes greedy and wants to increase his money as quickly as possible. For this, he comes to know of a firm named "Laxmi Chit Fund" headed by Anuradha(Bipasha Basu), which doubles the money in 21 days but a minimum of Rs.1 Crore is needed. Raju, asks Babu Rao and Shyam to sign and give their Rs.10 Lakh to Raju and by this, Raju, gets Rs.30 Lakh. However, when Shyam is signing, the voice of the song "Golmal hai bhai sab golmal hai" echoes in Shyams ears. Raju, still needs Rs. 70 Lakh more and tells about the same scheme to Pappu(Rajpal Yadav) and gets Rs.20 Lakh more. Pappu, to give his Rs.20 Lakhs, borrows the money from Tiwari Seth(Sharat Saxena) who is from the underworld. But, they are still short of Rs.50 Lakh for which Raju, sells their Rs.50 Lakh bungalow to a Parsi and get Rs.50 Lakhs more to make it Rs.1 Crore in all and give the money to Anuradha.
21 days go by and the company, turns out to be fraud. Later, Raju, Shyam and Babu Rao, know that Anuradha, was a bar-dancer and was the sister of Kashmira Shah of Hera Pheri and Kabira, had asked her to get Rs.1 Crore from the 3, Raju, Shyam and Babu Rao by setting up a fake company. When Anuradha, does not return the money, the goondas of Kabira dressed in military clothes, get after her and she gives the money to a "chacha" who hides it in some "Kuck-doo-koo".
Raju, Shyam and Babu Rao, have lost all their money in being greedy and now, they take a rented room just beside Johnny Levers room. Sunil Pal, is also one of the members of Johnny Levers gang. Worst of all, Tiwari Seth, also gets behind Raju, Shyam and Babu Rao and tells them to return his Rs.40 Lakhs, double the amount of which Pappu had borrowed from him within 3 days otherwise they will lose the girls and Pappu. One day, One of the members of Johnny Levers gang gets to know of a "adda" of Nanji bhai(Milind Gunaji) above a police-chowki where smuggling of drugs is done. In that adda, cash and drugs worth over Rs.4 Crore are hidden and Johnny Levers gang, plans to take away all the cash and drugs from there. Raju, overhears the conversation and starts the plan of doing "Phir Hera Pheri" to get the Rs.40 Lakhs which they need to give to Tiwari Seth and plan to keep the remaining Rs.3 Crore 60 Lakh with them.
For this, they dress as jokers getting their joker uniforms from and old box of Mohini Theatres, Babu Raos old company. They, then hide themselves in Johnny Levers room and take away the drugs worth Rs. 4 Crores and plan to give it to Tiwari Seth after converting them into cash. They go to Kachra Seth, but cant sell drugs of more than Rs.5000 to him as he doesnt have the money, so he asks them to sell them to Nanji bhai, who gets to know that they were his own drugs which were being sold back to him. Here, the climax of Phir Hera Pheri starts which takes place in the Royal circus. A Mr. Gorilla, also joins them in the climax. Mr. Gorilla, plays a main role in the climax. In the Circus, Babu Rao, Raju and Shyam, dress as jokers and this is real funny. They also get to know what "Kuck-doo-koo" was in the circus. I cant reveal the plot of the movie from here, watch it to know what really happened and did or 3 characters, Babu Rao, Shyam and Raju, became rich again. Also, the ending of the movie is in such a way that there is a need of another sequel.
Performances -
Paresh Rawal as BRGR Apte - Paresh Rawal, has done his role really well and the comedy roles seem to be suited to him. His dialogues like the "uthale" and "chya-maaila" seem very natural.
Akshay Kumar as Raju - Akshay Kumar, is the main character of the movie and his doing well in the comedy roles now in which he tricks people like in Mujhse Shaadi Karogi and Garam Masala. In Phir Hera Pheri, Akshay Kumar has delivered a better performance than Hera Pheri as he is more experienced in comedy roles now.
Sunil Shetty as Shyam - Sunil Shetty, has a bit of a more role than Hera Pheri, but he only plays second-fiddle to Paresh Rawal and Akshay Kumar in the movie and is the same sweet and simple Shyam of Hera Pheri.
Bipasha Basu as Anuradha - Bipasha Basu does not have a big role, except for 3-4 scenes like the running scene from Kabiras men and a song with Akshay Kumar.
Rimi Sen as Anjali - Rimi Sens role in the movie is very small except 2-3 scenes and a song with Akshay Kumar. Rimi Sen, has to take a bit of money from Akshay Kumar and Akshay Kumar, shows her a Rs.1000 note and says chutta nahi hai.
Johnny Lever - Johnny Lever has a small role in the movie as a local goonda who steals away the drugs from Milind Gunajis adda.
Sunil Pal - The Laughter champion has a very small role in the movie and is just a member of Johnny Levers gang and speaks just 1 word in the entire movie. The film will be a bit disappionting for Sunil Pals fans who wanted to see more from Sunil Pal.
Sharat Saxena as Tiwari Seth - Sharat Saxena, plays a role of a "totla" in the movie and plays the role of the main villian in this movie.
