Is Farhan Akhtar to really play a cop in ‘Don 3’? Here’s the truth

Ever since Farhan Akhtar hinted about working on the script of ‘Don 3’, speculations about he acting in the film as well have been riff. And looks like Farhan is quite not comfortable with that!

After a leading newspaper reported that he might be playing the cop in third edition of ‘Don’ franchise, Farhan took to Twitter to dismiss the same. (Also Read: Farhan Akhtar deletes his Facebook profile and THIS could be the reason)

“Request those who conjure up news about #Don3 without any fact checking to please refrain. It is not fair to raise expectations of the films fanbase via false news,” he wrote.

The first edition of new ‘Don’ came out in 2006, followed by the sequel that released in 2011. Both starred Shah Rukh Khan in the lead. While Isha Kopikar and Priyanka Chopra donned the female leads in the first part, Kopikar was replaced by Lara Dutta in the second part while Priyanka remained a constant.

Nevertheless, we’d love to have a third part too! 🙂
