Farhan Akhtar made a surprising announcement on Tuesday, August 8, as he dropped a short clip announcing Don 3. The 37-second clip shows the number 3 illuminated in red light with the words "A New Era Begins" written below, and the haunting background score of the action-thriller franchise in the background.
It has been rumoured that Ranveer Singh will replace Shah Rukh Khan in the threequel. As per the reports, the teaser video of Don 3 featuring Ranveer Singh is expected to come out this week itself and will be screened in the theatres along with Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel's Gadar 2 which releases on August 11.
A source was quoted Pinkvilla, "The teaser of Don 3 will be out this week on the digital world. The team is very excited to introduce Ranveer Singh as the new Don to this young generation of cinema-going audience. The introduction will happen through a proper teaser, which will drop digitally in the next 2 to 3 days."
"Gadar 2 is an action film, which is expected to set the box office on fire. Farhan Akhtar and co. are keen to screen the teaser of Don 3 at national chains all across the country. The same teaser might be screened with Ranveer’s own, Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani and Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2 as well", the source further added.
Fans flooded Farhan Akhtar's comments section requesting the actor-director not replace Shah Rukh Khan with Ranveer Singh in the series. While one of them wrote, "Can’t imagine Don without SRK", another added, "No Ranveer Singh, only Shah Rukh Khan". Some fans were also supportive of this move as one of them commented, "I hope everything goes well with the upcoming Don movie. Although it's disappointing that SRK won't be involved, I still want the franchise to succeed. Here's to making the best Don movie yet".
The original Don starred Amitabh Bachchan in the titular role and was released in 1978. 28 years later in 2006, Farhan Akhtar rebooted the franchise with Don: The Chase Begins Again starring Shah Rukh Khan, and also made a sequel Don 2: The King Is Back in 2011.
