Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3 has faced multiple delays for undisclosed reasons, but the latest update suggests that the film is set to go on floors in January 2026. Ranveer Singh replaced Shah Rukh Khan as the lead in the third installment of this stylish action-packed franchise.
Earlier, reports hinted that Vikrant Massey, known for 12th Fail and Mirzapur, would play the antagonist. While this surprised many fans, the latest speculation has stirred even more buzz. Accordingly, Telugu star Vijay Deverakonda was approached to replace Vikrant Massey as the villain.
However, some reports now claim that Vijay has turned down the exciting offer. The sudden buzz linking Vijay Deverakonda to the Don franchise out of nowhere has certainly caught the attention of fans and the media alike.
Coming to the female lead, Kiara Advani had initially agreed to come on board but had to opt out due to her pregnancy. Kriti Sanon has now emerged as the frontrunner for the role, while Priyanka Chopra is expected to make a cameo appearance.
