Amid the controversial dispute between actor Ranveer Singh and filmmaker Farhan Akhtar over their film Don 3, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE), on Monday, announced its decision to ban the actor. The chairperson of FWICE, Ashoke Pandit, spoke to the media on Monday and revealed that Farhan had approached the workers’ body after the actor’s abrupt exit from his film.

FWICE bans Ranveer Singh

During the conference, Ashoke Pandit stated, "On 11th April, Farhan Akhtar filed a complaint with the IFTDA, that's the Indian Film and Television Directorate Association, which I head. In his complaint, he said that he would like to come and meet and file a complaint against Ranveer Singh, the actor. The complaint very clearly said that just three weeks before the unit was supposed to leave for the shoot, Ranveer Singh withdrew from the film. So as a matter of rule, the federation invited Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani. Farhan Akhtar came on Zoom because he was in London, and Ritesh Sidhwani came to the office of the federation."
