      SRK out Ranveer in, Farhan Akhtar's tries to douse Don uproar: this is what he said

      Filmmaker-actor Farhan Akhtar has been facing a lot of criticism for casting Ranveer Singh in the titular role in ‘Don 3’. Ranveer Singh will replace Shah Rukh Khan in this crime thriller franchise.

      Addressing the criticism around Ranveer’s casting, Farhan assured that he will do ‘great job’ while playing Don.

      In an interview with BBC Asian Network, Farhan remembered how even Shah Rukh was criticised for taking up the role which was once aced by Amitabh Bachchan.

      He said, ‘Ranveer is amazing. He’s great for the part. He’s also, as you can imagine, really excited and really nervous, about the thing you’re filling some big shoes before you. But we went through the same emotional process when Shah Rukh did it and everyone was like ‘Oh my God, how can you replace Mr. Bachchan?.’That whole thing happened then.’

      The filmmaker continued, ‘It really is about an actor coming in and owning the part and making it really like, giving it their style and their flair. And he has that, he has that in spades. So, he is going to do a great job. I think the responsibility is more mine now to make sure that the script and the film work out the way I imagine.’

      Farhan Akhtar also confirmed that he will start shooting for ‘Don 3’ only in 2025, and he is still in the process of finalising the cast.
