Mumbai: Fans have been eagerly anticipating the collaboration between Farhan Akhtar and Shah Rukh Khan for some time now. They were expecting them to come together for the third installment of the Don franchise. However, news surfaced recently that Shah Rukh Khan has exited the film ‘Don’.
A while ago, Pinkvilla reported that Shah Rukh Khan was inclined towards focusing on commercially viable films that cater to a global audience, which led to his departure from this project. Subsequently, it was reported that Ranveer Singh would now be stepping into Shah Rukh Khan’s role in the film. While this news brought joy to Ranveer’s fans, many of Shah Rukh’s fans were disappointed.
Ranveer is enthusiastic about taking on this project. He now bears the responsibility of carrying forward the legacy of Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan. Information regarding Ranveer’s involvement in Don 3 was shared through industry sources on Twitter. The sources stated that this film would be quite different from its predecessors. The producers have planned to make this announcement on Ranveer Singh’s birthday.
This news has brought immense happiness to Ranveer’s fans, although some individuals expressed their discontent. Some people also trolled Farhan Akhtar for joking about this classic film. One user wrote, “I’m not a fan of Shah Rukh or Ranveer, but King Khan suits the character of Don better. Just as Shah Rukh portrayed this role, people embraced him. Ranveer has acting prowess, but Shah Rukh’s command over the character is exceptional.”
