The Don 3 controversy is intensifying, with industry insiders questioning Ranveer Singh's departure after nearly 32 months of dedicated preparation. Excel Entertainment began developing the film around Singh in April 2023, even filming an announcement video at their own expense.
The production house faced fan resistance but proceeded, with a term sheet signed in August 2024 and the latest script draft shared in March 2025. Extensive pre-production activities, including action training in November 2025 and script reading sessions in December 2025, were undertaken.
Despite these advancements, a look test scheduled for December 17, 2025, was cancelled. Three days later, on December 20, 2025, Singh reportedly informed the producers via phone call that he would no longer be part of the project, leaving many to question the timing of his withdrawal.
