A new theory is doing the rounds about Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3 starring Ranveer Singh. Reddit users claim the film’s delay is linked to plans for a major crossover. Many believe the director wants a grand ending that connects different eras of the franchise.
One post on the Reddit forum BollyBlindsNGossip, by someone claiming to be from Excel Entertainment, says the delay is not due to budgets or dates. The user alleges Farhan is struggling to execute his dream climax. That idea involves bringing together all the original faces.
The source claims the final sequence would feature Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Zeenat Aman and Priyanka Chopra. This moment is imagined as a tribute to all versions of Don and their leading ladies. Fans see it as a legacy scene worth the wait.
As per the post, Amitabh and Zeenat are said to have agreed. However, Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka reportedly do not wish to work together due to their past relationship. Their history is allegedly the biggest hurdle in this plan.
To work around the issue, Farhan is said to be suggesting separate shoots. This would allow both actors to be part of the climax without sharing the same set. The idea, however, has not convinced either side so far.
Because of this deadlock, production on Don 3 continues without clarity on the ending. Insiders say the director may soon have to choose between the two stars. Reports suggest Shah Rukh Khan is more likely to be retained if forced.
The script requires Roma’s character for the climax. If Priyanka does not return, Farhan may recast the role opposite Shah Rukh Khan. This option is said to be under discussion while talks continue with all parties involved.
Despite the uncertainty, Farhan has not given up on his idea. He is said to be focusing mainly on Don 3 over his other projects. His goal remains to deliver a climax that fans will remember for years.
Fans are already excited about the possibility of seeing multiple versions of Don together. Many also wish to see all the Roma characters return. While Priyanka’s casting has drawn mixed reactions, overall hype for the film remains strong.
So far, there is no official confirmation from the Don 3 team. Everything remains in the realm of speculation. If even part of this turns out to be true, audiences can expect a massive cinematic moment next year.
