The highly awaited action film “Don 3” is finally making headlines again. Produced by Excel Entertainment and directed by Farhan Akhtar, this third installment in the popular Don franchise comes with a fresh cast, new story, and more action than ever before.
In the past, Shah Rukh Khan played the iconic role of Don in Don and Don 2. However, this time, he has declined to return, reportedly because he was not impressed with the new script. As a result, the role has been handed over to Ranveer Singh, one of Bollywood’s most energetic and versatile actors.
Fresh Faces in the New Don Universe
Ranveer Singh will be stepping into the lead role of Don. Joining him will be the talented Vikrant Massey, who has gained a strong following for his recent powerful performances. Also appearing in the film is Kiara Advani, though her participation in the shoot is currently on hold.
