“Shah Rukh Khan May Return to Don 3 Following Ranveer Singh’s Exit, But Sets One Condition”

Shah Rukh Khan May Return to Don 3 After Ranveer Singh Exits, But Puts One Condition.

Following Ranveer Singh’s exit from Don 3, reports suggest that Shah Rukh Khan could reprise his iconic role in the franchise. According to TellyChakkar, SRK is willing to return but has set one condition: the inclusion of Jawan director Atlee in the project. The superstar reportedly believes Atlee’s involvement would elevate the film’s scale and excitement, though no final decisions have been made yet.

Shah Rukh Khan originally played the titular role in Don 2, while Ranveer Singh was slated to take over for the third installment before quitting late last year.

Why Did Ranveer Singh Step Away?

Pinkvilla reports that Ranveer’s priorities shifted after the blockbuster success of Dhurandhar. A source said, “He wants to collaborate with filmmakers like Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Lokesh Kanagaraj, and Atlee, and at the same time, he doesn’t want back-to-back gangster roles, especially since Dhurandhar has already established him in that space.”

Updates on Don 3 Cast

Originally, Kiara Advani was signed as the female lead opposite Ranveer Singh, but recent reports suggest she has exited the project. Kriti Sanon is reportedly in talks to step in, though nothing has been officially confirmed.

As for the antagonist, Vikrant Massey and Vijay Deverakonda were approached but reportedly declined the role, citing a lack of depth in the character. With Shah Rukh Khan’s potential return and these casting updates, Don 3 remains one of Bollywood’s most anticipated films.
