Farhan Akhtar planned Don 3 with Ranveer Singh, but shockingly, the actor walked out of the project due to creative differences. Ranveer’s exit stirred a controversy, and finally, Farhan Akhtar reacted to the issue in an interview with Hollywood Reporter India.
The director said, “What I have learnt is to expect the unexpected. Nothing can be taken for granted till you actually have it on film. My journey in films has been an incredible ride so far, and I understand that challenging phases are inevitable, and it’s something he chooses to take in his stride.”
Following Ranveer Singh’s exit from Don 3, Farhan Akhtar’s Excel Entertainment approached the Producers Guild of India, complaining that the actor’s sudden departure led to losses of Rs. 40 crores. Reportedly, Ranveer said that Farhan Akhtar prioritized other projects over Don 3, and that he was approached after the success of Dhurandhar.
Despite Don 3 not moving ahead as planned, Farhan Akhtar stated that it is one of the incredible stories that he wants to tell. Who will now spearhead the stylish gangster action flick? It remains to be seen.
