Co-producer of Don 3, Ritesh Sidhwani reveals if Deepika Padukone is a part of Don 3!

The rumour mills have been running and suggesting that ‘Padmavati’ actress Deepika Padukone has replaced her ‘Bajirao Mastani’ co-star Priyanka Chopra in ‘Don 3’.

According to reports, Deepika Padukone was suggested by the Don actor Shah Rukh Khan. Apparently, he felt owing his chemistry with Deepika they will look better on screen.

Since we saw ‘Don 2’ starring Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra we have been eagerly waiting for its sequel ‘Don 3’. Sadly, due Farhan Akhtar’s busy acting schedule, the director-actor has not been able to give the Don franchise his attention.

Co-producer of the Don franchise Ritesh Sidhwani spoke with the press during the success party of ‘Fukrey Returns’ and cleared all the doubts.

Ritesh Sidhwani revealed, “Deepika is not part of Don,”

Talking about Don 3’s progress, Ritesh stated, “We have started thinking very seriously about Don 3 and we are toying with ideas. We will make it and hopefully, it will be very soon,”

During previous press interactions, Farhan never mentioned the progress of ‘Don 3’. Though he expressed his awe! Farhan is surprised that the fans are eagerly waiting for the third installment of the franchise.

He felt commenting on the movie will only play with the hopes of the audiences. He revealed that he is taking a break from acting and will focus on directing more.

Whereas we are sure that Shah Rukh Khan will be coming back as Don in the franchise, as for the actress we too, are not sure. While co-producer Ritesh has confirmed that Deepika Padukone will not be starring in ‘Don 3’, he never clarified the rumour of Priyanka Chopra being replaced. Deepika Padukone To Replace Priyanka Chopra In Don 3?
