The journey of a big film often comes with twists and turns, and Farhan Akhtar’s much-anticipated Don 3 is no exception. After a long wait since its announcement, the film starring Ranveer Singh is finally gaining momentum. A major update has confirmed that the pre-production will kick off next month, setting the stage for filming to begin later this year.

Kriti Sanon Joins the Don Universe

Initially, Kiara Advani was roped in to play the female lead opposite Ranveer Singh. However, due to her pregnancy, she had to step away from the project. Since then, the search was on for a suitable replacement. Now, sources reveal that Kriti Sanon has been finalized for the role.

The makers, including Farhan Akhtar and his Excel Entertainment team, were keen on casting an experienced and versatile actress for the iconic role of Roma. They believe Kriti fits the bill perfectly, bringing both elegance and strength to the character that was earlier portrayed by Zeenat Aman in the original Don and Priyanka Chopra in the rebooted franchise.

European Locations Locked, Action Sequences in Progress

With the script already completed, Farhan has also finalized Europe as the primary shooting location for Don 3. Before the cameras roll, he will collaborate with an international stunt team to design high-octane action sequences that are expected to raise the bar for the franchise.

When Does Shooting Begin?

The film is slated to go on floors by October or November this year. Before diving into Don 3, Kriti Sanon will wrap up her current project Tere Ishq Mein with director Aanand L. Rai. Additionally, she is also in talks for a horror-thriller titled Nai Naveli.

With an exciting new cast, global locations, and action-packed sequences in the pipeline, Don 3 is shaping up to be one of the most awaited films of the year.
