And now he and Riteish Sidhwani's production house Excel Entertainment is gearing up with the ambitious project of 'Don 3' starring Ranveer Singh.
After announcing Ranveer as the new Don, Akhtar defended the decision to cast the 'Bajirao Mastani' actor. In a recent dialogue with BBC Asian Network, Farhan Akhtar discussed the decision to cast Ranveer as the new Don. He shared that Ranveer, just like Akhtar himself, experienced a mix of excitement and anxiety when stepping into the shoes previously filled by Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan. Farhan's sentiment echoed the situation when Shah Rukh Khan had succeeded Amitabh Bachchan in the role, which also sparked a similar initial skepticism.
When queried about the qualities defining a good Don, Farhan highlighted the importance of self-confidence, flamboyance, and the unwavering determination to accomplish anything one sets their mind to. Shifting focus to the film's logistics, the filmmaker unveiled details about the shooting schedule. He disclosed that production is set to commence in January 2025.
Meanwhile, Farhan also has his directorial 'Jee Le Zaraa' in the pipeline. The film was announced a couple of years ago with Priyanka Chopra, Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt in the lead.
