Hrithik Roshan in talks to lead Don 3 after Ranveer Singh's exit: Report

Hrithik Roshan is reportedly being considered as the new lead of Don 3 following Ranveer Singh’s reported exit from the film. According to industry buzz, the makers are exploring the possibility of bringing Hrithik on board to take forward the iconic franchise.

The idea of Hrithik stepping into the Don universe isn’t entirely new for fans. Many will recall his stylish cameo in Don 2, where Shah Rukh Khan’s character used advanced technology to disguise himself as Hrithik during a crucial heist sequence. While it is still unclear if Farhan Akhtar and his team plan to connect that moment to the new storyline, the possibility has certainly fuelled excitement among audiences.

According to a source quoted by Filmfare, the makers are actively considering Hrithik Roshan as a strong option to lead the franchise forward. “Following Ranveer’s exit, Hrithik has emerged as a strong contender for the role. While discussions are still at a very early stage, it will



be interesting to see whether Hrithik ultimately comes on board,” the source revealed.

The pressure surrounding Don 3 is understandably high. The franchise carries a powerful legacy, having been led by Amitabh Bachchan in the 1978 original and later redefined by Shah Rukh Khan in the 2006 and 2011 films. The makers are reportedly keen on choosing someone with proven stardom and a solid body of work to live up to that legacy.

Reports suggest that the search for a new lead began after Ranveer Singh moved on from the project following the massive success of Dhurandhar. While there has been no official confirmation from either the actor or the makers, it is believed that Ranveer is now focusing on Jai Mehta’s upcoming film Pralay.

As speculation continues, all eyes are now on whether Hrithik Roshan will officially step into the role or if the makers will surprise audiences by introducing a completely new face to carry the Don legacy forward.
