Hrithik Roshan Addresses Don 3 Rumors Following Ranveer Singh’s Split with Excel Entertainment
Amid swirling rumors regarding the casting of the highly anticipated film Don 3, actor Hrithik Roshan has stepped forward to clarify his position, asserting that he was never approached for the project. His statement comes in light of recent reports about the film’s production challenges, particularly following Ranveer Singh’s reported exit from the franchise. Hrithik emphasized the importance of addressing these unverified claims to prevent further misinformation.
Background of *Don 3* and Casting Changes
In August 2023, Excel Entertainment announced *Don 3*, introducing Ranveer Singh as the new lead in the iconic franchise. The announcement was accompanied by a stylized video that generated significant excitement among fans, with production slated to begin in 2026. However, recent developments have suggested that Singh has exited the project, leading to widespread speculation and discussions within the film industry. Reports indicate that two closed-door meetings were convened by the Producers Guild of India, involving key stakeholders to address the situation.
Allegations of Unprofessionalism
During the second meeting, Ranveer Singh reportedly expressed his grievances regarding Excel Entertainment’s handling of the project. According to an anonymous producer present at the meeting, Singh criticized the company for its lack of professionalism and failure to finalize a script. He emphasized his preference for working with fully developed material, stating that Farhan Akhtar, the film’s director, had not provided a bound script. Furthermore, Singh allegedly claimed that Excel was considering bringing Hrithik Roshan into the project only after the success of *Dhurandhar*, which he viewed as an opportunistic move.
Hrithik Roshan’s Clarification
In response to the ongoing speculation, Hrithik Roshan publicly distanced himself from *Don 3*, stating that he had never been in discussions regarding the film. His clarification aims to quell the rumors linking him to the project and to emphasize that he was not involved in any capacity. As of now, there has been no official communication from Excel Entertainment regarding the casting or production timeline for *Don 3*, leaving fans and industry insiders eager for updates on the film’s future.
