Don 3, starring Ranveer Singh, has faced multiple delays. While Kiara Advani was initially signed on as the female lead, recent reports suggest she has opted out, with Kriti Sanon stepping in to replace her. Earlier rumours had suggested that Vikrant Massey would play the antagonist; however, he reportedly backed out due to the lack of depth in the role.

Known for his performances in hits like Master, Good Bad Ugly, and Kaithi, Arjun is reportedly in talks with director Farhan Akhtar. If confirmed, this role will mark his debut in Bollywood.
"Arjun has shown his interest too, as the character has multiple arcs and a lot more than just a run-of-the-mill antagonist," said the report.
