Headlines have been buzzing with the claim that Ranbir Kapoor, not Ranveer Singh, was initially offered the lead role in the upcoming film “Don 3.”
While this might pique the interest of B-town enthusiasts, the truth behind the casting process remains unconfirmed.
Several media outlets reported that director Farhan Akhtar first approached Ranbir after Shah Rukh Khan opted out due to script concerns. However, an insider source has claimed that these reports are fake.
Furthermore, neither Ranbir Kapoor nor his representatives have issued any statements confirming or denying their involvement in “Don 3” discussions.

Ranveer Singh is officially confirmed to be playing the iconic Don in the upcoming film. He has actively participated in promotions and expressed his excitement about the project. Farhan Akhtar remains tight-lipped about the casting process. While he might have considered various actors during initial discussions, details like specific offers and rejections haven’t been officially confirmed.
It is believed that Ranbir has been the first choice for several Ranveer Singh hits like Gully Boy, Dil Dhadakne Do and Padmavaat.
