Don 3: Ranveer Singh, Kiara Advani's Film To Have A Grand Rs. 275 Crore Budget?

Ranveer Singh has been officially announced to take on the lead role in the highly anticipated "Don 3," stepping into the shoes previously filled by Shah Rukh Khan. This revelation has sparked considerable interest among fans, especially since the first two installments, with SRK in the lead, were box office successes. Despite expectations that Khan might reprise his role for the third film, the mantle has been passed to Singh, marking a significant shift in the franchise's direction.

Adding to the excitement, Kiara Advani has been confirmed to play the female lead, succeeding Priyanka Chopra who starred opposite SRK in the earlier films. While many had hoped for Chopra's return, especially considering SRK's absence from "Don 3," Advani's casting brings a fresh dynamic to the series.

Recent reports suggest that "Don 3" is being produced with an impressive budget of Rs. 275 crore, positioning it as potentially one of the most expensive projects for both Ranveer Singh and Kiara Advani. Although official confirmation is pending, such a budget indicates high expectations for the film's performance and its ability to showcase the star power of its leading actors.

A source close to the production shared insights with Bollywood Hungama, stating, "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." This ambition highlights the team's intention to elevate the franchise to new heights, both domestically and internationally.

Farhan Akhtar returns as director for "Don 3," having successfully helmed the first two installments. While a specific release date has yet to be announced, the film is slated for a 2025 release. This long-term planning underscores the meticulous preparation and ambition behind this next chapter in the "Don" saga.
