Meanwhile, on the film front, Ranveer will be seen reprising his role of Simmba in Rohit Shetty's cop drama Singham Again, which also stars his wife Deepika Padukone, actors Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff and Kareena Kapoor Khan. Ranveer will also headline Farhan Akhtar's Don 3. While announcing the film, Farhan requested the audience to give the same love to Ranveer as they showered on previous Don instalments. "In 1978, a character created by Salim-Javed and portrayed by Amitabh Bachchan with effortless elan captured the imagination of theatregoers across the country. That enigmatic character was Don. In 2006, Don was reimagined and brought to life by Shah Rukh Khan in his own irresistibly charming way," he wrote.

We hope that you will show him the love you have so graciously and generously shown to Mr Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan," the post further read. Don 3 will arrive in 2025.
