After Ranveer Singh’s exit from Don 3, it has now been reported that Shah Rukh Khan is likely to make a comeback to the franchise with his iconic role. If a report by TellyChakkar is to be believed, SRK
is likely to return to Don 3 and is also ‘willing’ to reprise his iconic role. However, the superstar has put one condition for his return to the Farhan Akhtar directorial.
Reportedly, Shah Rukh Khan will come on board only if Jawan director Atlee is roped in as part of the Don franchise. Reportedly, the actor is asking for Atlee’s inclusion to step up the film’s scale and excitement among the audience. However, no final decision has been taken as of now.
Shah Rukh Khan played the iconic role of Don in the second film of the franchise. Ranveer Singh was supposed to replace King Khan in Don 3. However, he also quit the movie late last year.
Why Did Ranveer Singh Quit Don 3?
According to a report by Pinkvilla, Ranveer Singh’s priorities appear to have shifted in the aftermath of Dhurandhar’s blockbuster run. A source told the publication, “He is keen to collaborate with filmmakers like Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Lokesh Kanagaraj, and Atlee, and at the same time, he doesn’t want to be seen in back-to-back gangster films, especially since Dhurandhar is already established in that space.”
About Don 3
Don 3 is one of the most awaited films. Initially, Kiara Advani was signed on to play the female lead opposite Ranveer. However, recent reports suggest that she has exited the project, with Kriti Sanon stepping in to take her place. But there is no official announcement regarding the leading lady as of now.
As for the antagonist in Don 3, reports claim that while Vikrant Massey and Vijay Deverakonda were approached for the role, both actors declined the opportunity due to the character lacking depth.
