Ranveer Singh Starrer Don 3 Hits Another Roadblock, Farhan Akhtar’s Directorial Indefinitely Delayed; Likely To Be Shelved?

The much-anticipated Don 3, starring Ranveer Singh, has hit another snag. Initially, the film was supposed to begin shooting in August 2023, but plans were pushed back to January 2025. Then film was further postponed due to Farhan Akhtar, the film’s director, started his acting project, 120 Bahadur.

Now Box Office Worldwide brings you EXCLUSIVE on the same.

Don 3 Shoot Pushed Again, Makers Might Shelve The Film

A source close to production revealed, “Farhan wanted to fulfil his acting commitment before jumping into Don 3. Since shooting for 120 Bahadur took months, the new Don 3 schedule was shifted to May or June 2025. Farhan was about to begin shoot for much awaited franchise from September post release of 120 Bahadur but Vikrant Massey walked out of role of main antagonist.”

Source further added, “Now few other issues have cropped up too. Makers have decided to postpone the film to next year and there are murmurs in close circle that team has already informed the leading man regarding shelving of the project.”

In a sudden turn of events, Vikrant Massey, who recently delivered a disaster in Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan alongside Shanaya Kapoor, was poised to take on a pivotal role in the highly anticipated Don 3. Set to play the main antagonist opposite Ranveer Singh in Farhan Akhtar’s much talked about film, Vikrant was expected to bring a new level of intensity to the project.

But in a dramatic twist, Vikrant found the role lacking in depth and has made the bold decision to walk away. The character, a suave, smooth-talking scamster, demanded a significant makeover and featured numerous high-octane action combat scenes against the lead star Ranveer Singh. This unexpected move has left Farhan Akhtar and the production team scrambling to find a suitable replacement, who can do justice to this complex character.

One has to remember that Kiara Advani too left the film after official announcement early last year. Her pregnancy was cited as the main reason behind the move.

Farhan Akhtar’s Other Projects Face Delays Too

It seems Farhan Akhtar’s directorial projects have been facing some consistent delays. Not just Don 3, but his long-awaited film Jee Le Zaraa has also been pushed back. This road-trip movie focusing on female friendships stars Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Katrina Kaif, and Alia Bhatt.

Alia previously addressed the delay, saying, “Scheduling conflicts have held it up, but we’re all still eager to make it happen when the timing is right.”

With Farhan busy with release of 120 Bahadur and Don 3 facing further delays, fans will have to wait a bit longer for the return of the iconic franchise.
