Don 3 Set to Revive Iconic Track ‘Aaj Ki Raat’ with Ranveer Singh and Kriti Sanon
The highly anticipated third installment of the Don franchise is making headlines with significant casting changes and exciting developments. Ranveer Singh has officially taken over the role of Don, previously portrayed by Shah Rukh Khan. In a surprising turn of events, Kriti Sanon is set to replace Kiara Advani as the female lead, marking her first collaboration with both Singh and director Farhan Akhtar. As the film gears up for production, fans are buzzing about the potential recreation of the iconic dance track “Aaj Ki Raat.”
Kriti Sanon Steps In as the Female Lead
Initially, Kiara Advani was slated to star alongside Ranveer Singh in Don 3. However, recent reports indicate that she has withdrawn from the project, paving the way for Kriti Sanon to take on the leading role. This casting change is particularly noteworthy as it will be Sanon’s first time working with both Singh and Akhtar under the Don franchise. The actress recently hinted at her involvement in the film by posting a birthday message for Singh on her Instagram Stories, expressing her eagerness to collaborate. Fans and media outlets have interpreted this gesture as a confirmation of her role in the upcoming film.
A Nostalgic Dance Number on the Horizon
Adding to the excitement surrounding Don 3 is the rumor that the film will feature a vibrant dance number reminiscent of the beloved track “Aaj Ki Raat” from the 2006 version of Don. This original song, which starred Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, and Isha Koppikar, is celebrated for its catchy rhythm and stylish choreography. Reports suggest that Kriti Sanon will perform in a similar high-energy sequence, potentially alongside another actress, creating a dynamic reminiscent of the original song’s trio. Additionally, there are indications that Sharvari will also play a significant role in the film, further enriching the cast.
Production Timeline and Audience Reactions
Don 3 is set to commence filming in January 2026, with a theatrical release anticipated for December of the same year. The announcement of Ranveer Singh as the new Don has sparked a mix of reactions from fans, with some expressing excitement while others have drawn comparisons to previous actors who held the iconic role, including Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan. The reboot’s potential to capture the essence of its predecessors while introducing fresh elements has left audiences eager for more details as the production date approaches.
