More about Don 3

Earlier, speaking to Raj Shamani, Farhan Akhtar addressed the discussion about why he chose to cast Ranveer for Don 3 instead of Shah Rukh Khan. He said that the kind of script they were writing, what he wanted to do with it, needed the next generation of actors and Ranveer was the perfect choice.

Mentioning Ranveer's carefree and full of energy vibes, Farhan further added, "Don requires a very different kind of performance from him. There is a certain holding everything inside that is needed for this character which I don't think he has done so I feel, for him also, it is a nice challenge to be able to do this. You will see him in a different way."

Don 3 will also feature Vikrant Massey in a key role. Reports suggested that he will play the role of a villain. It will mark Ranveer and Vikrant’s reunion after Dil Dhadakne Do. They also shared screen space in Vikramaditya Motwane’s Lootera in 2013.
