Farhan Akhtar Puts Hold On Ranveer Singh’s Don 3; Resumes Working On Priyanka Chopra, Katrina Kaif-Alia Bhatt’s Jee Le Zaraa- Report

Farhan Akhtar is reportedly shifting his focus from the highly anticipated Don 3 to revive another passion project — Jee Le Zaraa, featuring Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif, and Priyanka Chopra as the lead characters. Fans have eagerly awaited an official announcement about Jee Le Zaraa ever since rumors of the three actresses coming together for the film surfaced. Meanwhile, it appears that fans of the Don franchise will have to wait a bit longer for the third installment.

Farhan Akhtar Shifts Focus From Ranveer Singh’s Don 3 To Jee Le Zaraa?

A source close to Farhan told Pinkvilla, “Farhan feels the casting of Don is crucial.” The director wants to ensure he finds the right actor to step into the iconic role, which is a careful and lengthy process. Farhan’s focus is on quality and suitability over speed.

The same source revealed that with the delay in Don 3, Farhan has decided to revisit Jee Le Zaraa, a project he’s always held close to his heart. “Since Don 3 was taking longer than expected to cast, he thought this was the perfect time to reconnect with the original team and push Jee Le Zaraa forward,” the insider explained. The delay on Don 3 has inadvertently given Farhan an opportunity to restart work on his dream project.

The script for Jee Le Zaraa is complete, but filming has been delayed due to the actresses’ packed schedules. “The movie might finally go on floors in the second half of 2026 if everything aligns,” the insider added. “The story and creative vision are locked in; now it’s just about coordinating schedules.”

What’s The Latest On Jee Le Zaraa?

According to reports, Farhan has already begun discussions with Priyanka Chopra, Katrina Kaif, and Alia Bhatt. He’s hopeful that they can coordinate their schedules to make the project happen. A source mentioned that everyone is eager to work on the film. However, the main challenge now is finding a suitable time for all three actresses.
