Exciting Updates on Don 3: New Cast Member Joins Amid Changes
Anticipation Surrounds Don 3
Don 3 is generating significant buzz as one of the most awaited films in Bollywood. After a two-year delay, production was set to kick off in 2026. Although the cast was prepared, the unexpected news of Ranveer Singh's departure from the project has stirred the pot. Following his exit, a new actor is reportedly stepping in to take over Vikrant Massey's role.
Vikrant Massey's Role and Departure
Initially, Vikrant Massey was expected to portray a pivotal character in Farhan Akhtar's Don 3, with rumors suggesting he would play the antagonist. However, he exited the film a few months back. Now, with Ranveer's departure, reports indicate that a new Bollywood actor is being considered to fill Vikrant's shoes.
Who is the New Actor?
Replacement for Vikrant Massey
Recent media reports suggest that Farhan Akhtar has identified an actor who gained attention in 2025 for a notable comeback. After a hiatus from the screen, he made a strong return with a web series that captured the audience's interest.
If you haven't figured it out yet, the actor in question is Rajat Bedi, known for his role in "Bad Boys of Bollywood." According to sources, discussions are underway with the 51-year-old actor to take on a significant role in Don 3, potentially stepping into Vikrant Massey's part. Farhan Akhtar and Rajat have already had official talks, with plans to meet this January at Akhtar's office in Khar, Mumbai.
