Ranveer Singh's 'Don 3' Not Shelved

Mumbai, February 27 - It's been more than a year since Farhan Akhtar announced Don 3 with Ranveer Singh in the lead role, replacing superstar Shah Rukh Khan. The movie, however, has faced challenges which led to rumours of its getting shelved.

Ranveer Singh hasn't been in the best of form at the box office and there is negativity around his casting for the role of Don which delays the production. Over the past few months, there have been rumours that Don 3 has been shelved, but director Akhtar has an exciting update for the fans.



During a recent interview with India Today, Farhan Akhtar put rumours to rest and confirmed that the movie is on and starting shooting this year itself. Earlier, the action drama was supposed to start rolling in 2024 but due to other commitments of Farhan and Ranveer, the movie couldn't start back then.

Earlier last year, Akhtar Excel Entertainment issued a statement stating that the makers and Ranveer Singh are on the same page and that the timelines of Don 3 remain unchanged, denying the postponement rumours. The makers promised to deliver an unforgettable cinematic spectacle that lives up to the franchise's legacy while setting new benchmarks.

Don 3 will be produced by Excel Entertainment and it will feature Kiara Advani as the female lead. It will be Ranveer Singh's next release after director Aditya Dhar's Dhurandar which is currently on floors.
