Ranveer Singh will do a fantastic job, says Farhan Akhtar in response to the conflicting reactions to his casting in Don 3.
Bollywood fans are no strangers to heated discussions and debates, especially when it comes to casting choices for iconic movie franchises. Recently, the announcement of Ranveer Singh as the lead in “Don 3” stirred up a whirlwind of conflicting reactions among moviegoers and critics alike. Amid this buzz, filmmaker Farhan Akhtar, the director of the “Don” series, has stepped forward to express his unwavering confidence in Ranveer Singh’s ability to deliver a fantastic performance. Let’s explore why Farhan’s vote of confidence matters and what it says about the casting choice.
Casting Controversies in Bollywood
Casting controversies have been a staple of the entertainment industry, and Bollywood is no exception. When beloved characters and franchises are brought back to the silver screen, fans often have strong opinions about who should step into the shoes of their favorite actors. The announcement of a new lead can lead to a mix of excitement, curiosity, and skepticism among audiences.
Ranveer Singh’s Casting in “Don 3”
The “Don” franchise, a modern adaptation of the classic 1978 film, has been a successful venture led by Farhan Akhtar himself. Shah Rukh Khan had played the titular role in the first two installments, establishing a strong connection between his portrayal and the character of Don. When news broke that Ranveer Singh would take on the role in the upcoming “Don 3,” it sparked a range of reactions.
Ranveer Singh is known for his dynamic acting range and ability to immerse himself in diverse roles. However, stepping into the shoes of a character previously portrayed by another iconic actor is no easy feat. Some fans expressed excitement over the prospect of seeing Ranveer’s fresh take on Don, while others were apprehensive about the change.
Farhan Akhtar’s Reassurance
Amid the conflicting reactions, Farhan Akhtar, who not only directed the “Don” films but also portrayed a pivotal character in them, has weighed in on the matter. His words of confidence in Ranveer Singh’s potential to excel in the role are reassuring to fans who may have had reservations. Farhan’s insight into the filmmaking process, coupled with his deep connection to the franchise, lends weight to his opinion.
In an industry where casting decisions often come under scrutiny, Farhan’s public endorsement of Ranveer Singh’s capabilities could potentially quell some of the concerns surrounding the casting choice. It speaks volumes about the level of consideration that goes into such decisions and the belief that creators have in their chosen actors’ ability to deliver.
The Power of Reinvention
The entertainment industry thrives on the ability to reinvent and reimagine beloved stories and characters. While initial reactions to casting choices may be mixed, history has shown that talented actors can surprise audiences with their fresh interpretations. Ranveer Singh’s enthusiasm, energy, and versatility as an actor may bring a new dimension to the character of Don, resonating with both old and new fans.

Mumbai traffic control room receives one more message threatening Salman Khan
The Mumbai traffic control unit on Tuesday received yet another message threatening to kill actor Salman Khan
MUMBAI: The Mumbai traffic control unit on Tuesday received yet another message threatening to kill actor Salman Khan. This is the second such message received by the traffic police control room in the past 10 days.
The latest message sent on WhatsApp read: “If Salman Khan wants to stay alive, he should go to a temple (Bishnoi community temple in Rajasthan) and apologise to the community or pay ₹5 crore. If he does not do the same, we will eliminate him. The Bishnoi gang is still active.”
The Karnataka police detained a 35-year-old man in Bengaluru based on the information provided by Mumbai police in connection with Bollywood actor Salman Khan death threat case registered in Worli police station. Police said, the person has been detained and he does welding work. The further interrogation is going on. The Mumbai police team is on the way to Karnataka to take the custody of the accused. “It does not seem serious. The exact reason will be clear once we will get the accused’s custody and interrogate him” said the senior officer.
Police officials said that the sender of the message claimed that he was a brother of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and insisted that the actor should either visit a temple and apologise for having killed a black buck (which is revered by the Bishnoi community of Rajasthan) or pay ₹5 crore. Police said the number is not a local one, and they are trying to identify and trace the sender.
The Worli police have registered a case against the unknown sender under sections 308(4) (putting or attempting to put a person in fear of death or of grievous hurt to that person or to any other person to commit extortion) and 351(3) (criminal intimidation by threatening to cause death or grievous hurt to a person) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
The police traced the sender’s location to Karnataka, but the probe hit an obstacle as the sender used a Virtual Private Network to send the message, making it difficult for them to trace the origin of the message. The police said they have dispatched a team to Karnataka and the cyber experts are trying to get the exact location of the sender. Police will soon get the person, said a senior officer who is part of the probe.
Meanwhile security has been beefed up for the actor. “This does not appear to be too serious, but we cannot take any such threat lightly,” said a senior police officer. A team of crime branch officers is working with cyber experts to track the sender of the latest message. “We are also checking if the message was really linked to the Bishnoi gang or someone just sent it for fun,” added the officer.
Last week, traffic police received a similar message, threatening the actor with dire consequences if he failed to meet the sender’s demand of ₹2 crore. On October 30, Worli police identified the sender of the message as Azam Mohammed Mustafa, a Bandra East resident, and apprehended him.
