Ranveer Singh’s Don 3 gets delayed
Ranveer Singh and Kiara Advani’s Don 3 to go on floors in 2025. The film is being helmed by Farhan Akhtar.
Ever since the announcement of Ranveer Singh as the lead in ‘Don 3’, fans have eagerly anticipated his portrayal in an action-packed avatar. Now, addressing recent speculations, an industry source informed India Today that the film’s schedule remains on track, with plans for it to commence filming in 2025.
Recently, it was announced that, Don 3, which was slated to go on floors this August, would be delayed for quite some time, as filmmaker Farhan Akhtar wanted to focus on his upcoming acting project.
A Peepingmoon.com report also stated that ‘the incomplete script’ is another reason why Farhan has delayed the film. The script is being written by Farhan and Pushkar-Gayatri (Vikram Vedha fame). They will be requiring more time in order to finish the script that is on par with the previous installments and successfully introduces a reimagined Don for a new era.
Although pre-production efforts have commenced, the film’s shooting is slated for the upcoming year. A source close to India Today reiterated, “Don 3 was always intended to get on the floors in 2025. The prep has been planned accordingly.” Earlier, Farhan Akhtar had affirmed their intention to announce the film beforehand to prevent unnecessary speculation and disappointment among fans.
Directed by Farhan Akhtar, Don 3 pledges to deliver another adrenaline-fueled installment. Ranveer Singh, chosen for the lead role, has consistently left audiences in awe with his magnificent performances, making him the perfect choice for the film. While the original film featured Amitabh Bachchan, the preceding two films in the Excel Productions franchise starred Shah Rukh Khan in the lead role.
