A few days back, producer Ritesh Sidhwani who’s Farhan Akhtar‘s partner at Excel Entertainment had confirmed that Farhan is working on the script of ‘Don 3′. Soon then, speculations had begun regarding Shah Rukh Khan‘s part in the film. Khan had headlined the first two installments of the project which also starred Priyanka Chopra.
However, a new report suggests that SRK won’t be a part of ‘Don 3’. Farhan and Ritesh have had many discussions about ‘Don 2’ but SRK isn’t too keen on getting back to this franchise because it doesn’t fit the kind of cinema he wants to do at the moment. The superstar wants to cater to a wider, more universal section of the audience and feels the script of ‘Don 3’ is more niche. As per the report, he also felt that the idea of ‘Don 3’ sounds gimmicky at the moment and hence has taken exit.
Meanwhile, Farhan had come up with the idea of bringing three generations of Don together – Amitabh Bachchan, SRK and one more star from the new generation. But with Shah Rukh’s exit, the talks are on at the moment with another actor. This hero has done two films with Farhan’s copany in the last decade. While this actor is keen on doing the film, there’s also a reservation as the shoes of Don are too big to fill even with Big B’s legacy.
‘Don’ will be rebooted again but only once one of the younger actors takes up the challenge. Meanwhile, Farhan is in the process of pre-production for ‘Jee Le Zaraa’ starring Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra and Katrina Kaif. The film is touted to go on floors by the end of the year, as confirmed by writer Reema Kagti.
