Ranveer Singh and Kiara Advani will lead the third installment of Farhan Akhtar’s Don Franchise. Comparisons with Shah Rukh Khan who played Don in the first two movies are obvious but it seems the approach of Farhan for this movie will be entirely different from his earlier movies from the franchise.
Bollywood Hungama has said that the first two movies with Shah Rukh Khan were made on a decent budget. But Farhan Akhtar has an entirely different vision for Don 3 and wants to make it a global thriller. The source has said, “The vision with Don 3 is not just to compete with action films of India, but also to go global on the scale front. Don 3 is Farhan's attempt to make a global action thriller and no one better than Ranveer Singh to spearhead the franchise in the new era."
Don 3 to compete with Spy Universe
According to the source, Don 3 will be made with a budget of Rs 275 crore that will exclude print and publicity expenses. The action scenes in the movie have been planned in such a way that Don 3 will be able to give good competition to the Spy Universe (most probably that of YRF).
Apart from that one thing that will separate Don 3 from the rest of the action flicks is that the protagonist will have a few negative elements.
Kiara Advani excited to do an action film
Kiara Advani who plays the female lead in Don 3 recently said that she is excited to do an action movie. Talking about her decision to give a nod to this flick, the Shershaah actress said, “As an actor, you are constantly stepping into different characters and making the world believe this is who you are. So, there will be a lot of prep for the film (‘Don 3’) but I’ve got time to do that. I’m very excited. I’ve never done an action movie, so now is my time to do some action.”
Ranveer Singh and Kiara Advani will share the screen for the first time. So fans are super excited to watch Ranveer as Don and Kiara as his jungli billi.
