Ranveer Singh Takes the Lead in Don 3 as Filming Commences

Ranveer Singh Cast as the New Don

Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani have officially selected Ranveer Singh to portray the lead character in the upcoming film Don 3. While some fans expressed uncertainty about the transition from Shah Rukh Khan to Ranveer, many are eager to see how Ranveer will infuse his unique flair into this legendary role.

Filming Delays Come to an End

The production of this film was initially slated to begin last year, but various factors caused delays. A significant reason for the postponement was Farhan Akhtar's commitment to his other project, 120 Bahadur. He aimed to finish this film before diving into Don 3. With 120 Bahadur nearing its conclusion, the anticipation for Don 3 is finally coming to fruition.

Exciting Reunion with a Twist

A reliable source has disclosed that Farhan is finalizing 120 Bahadur, while Ranveer has completed a substantial portion of Dhurandar. They are now set to commence filming for Don 3, with the first schedule expected to kick off this month. Vikrant Massey, who will portray the antagonist, is also confirmed for this shoot, although it remains uncertain if the female lead will join during the initial filming phase.

Female Lead Still Under Consideration

While Ranveer and Vikrant's participation is confirmed, the casting for the female lead has not yet been finalized. Names such as Kriti Sanon and Sharvari are reportedly in the running, but no official announcements have been made.

Vikrant Massey's Upcoming Projects

Interestingly, Vikrant Massey's schedule for Karan Johar's Dostana 2 hinges on the progress of Don 3. If filming had faced further delays, Dostana 2 was anticipated to start this month. However, with Don 3 moving ahead, the commencement of Dostana 2 is now expected to be pushed to next year.
