The wait for ‘Don 3’ has finally come to an end. Farhan Akhtar dropped a teaser of the movie which introduces Ranveer Singh in the titular role.
Sharing the teaser, Farhan wrote, 'A New Era Begins #Don3.' He also tagged Pushkar Gayatri in his post but the film will be directed by Farhan himself.
The teaser shows Ranveer sitting with his back to the camera in a high-rise building. He dons a leather jacket with boots and smokes a cigarette before facing the camera and introducing himself as Don.
Fans of the franchise are unhappy that Ranveer Singh has replaced Shah Rukh Khan.
Farhan had explained why a new actor will portray the role of Don in a social media post on August 8.
The note read, 'It was 1978 when the nation witnessed the rage of Don for the first time with superstar Mr Amitabh Bachchan playing the lead. While the first film continues to hold its charm, Excel Entertainment is delighted to announce the directorial homecoming of Farhan Akhtar's Don. With a legacy firmly established through his iconic two-film action franchise with Shah Rukh Khan in 2006 and 2011, the director is set to redefine the boundaries of storytelling once again in Don 3.'
He added, 'The time has now come to take the legacy of Don forward and joining us in this new interpretation will be an actor whose talent and versatility I have long admired. We hope that you will show him the love you have so graciously and generously shown to Mr Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan. A new era of Don begins in 2025. Watch this space.'
'Don 3' is scheduled to release in cinemas in 2025.
