We were the first to tell you that Shah Rukh Khan and Farhan Akhtar have already discussed about returning to the ‘Don’ franchise. The script is being worked out and the team has already locked the main plot for the third part.

While Shah Rukh Khan has been the most prominent face for the film in the first two instalments, recent reports reveal that there might be a change of hands. Apparently, a leading tabloid speculated that SRK has opted out of the film and Ranveer Singh has replaced him in the passion project. But we can confirm now, that none of it is true.

After speaking to our source from the production house, we have found out that SRK is very much on with the film. Bollywood Bubble source reveals, “Shah Rukh has never walked out of it. None of them have been locked as of now because the final script isn’t ready. There’s no point of saying no to a franchise that is currently synonymous with SRK.”

Instead, we hear the plot is such that it will put two actors against each other. “Ranveer Singh is being spoken to, but for a different role altogether. It won’t be Don as SRK still remains that character. There’s another important role which is one of the prime antagonists in the film that Farhan wanted a young actor for. Initially, they had thought of Arjun Kapoor but now, after a few spate of flops, it’s RS they want.

If all of it works out, then it will be interesting to see SRK vs RS on screen!
