What This Is All About?

FWICE recently announced a ban on Ranveer Singh and asked its members not to cooperate with the actor until the dispute is resolved. The federation also backed the producers’ demand seeking compensation for alleged pre-production losses worth around Rs 45 crore. According to reports, Excel Entertainment, headed by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani, filed a complaint against the actor in April.

FWICE claimed that Ranveer Singh had signed a three-film contract with the production house. But reportedly exited Don 3 nearly ten days before shooting was set to begin. The organisation stated that the sudden exit caused major financial losses due to extensive pre-production work already completed for the film. The federation also revealed that it attempted to mediate the matter. However, according to FWICE, Singh declined discussions through the body, saying the issue required an ‘appropriate’ forum. Despite this, the organisation said it remains open to further talks.

Ranveer Singh’s Statement On The Ban

Meanwhile, Ranveer Singh’s spokesperson issued an official statement saying that the actor had consciously chosen to remain silent on the matter. The statement added that professional discussions and personal equations should be handled with “dignity, maturity and mutual respect.”

Directed by Farhan Akhtar, Don 3 has remained under constant scrutiny ever since its announcement in 2023. The film has already faced multiple delays, casting changes and speculation around its production timeline. With FWICE’s latest action and the ongoing dispute now making headlines, uncertainty around the project continues to grow. Ranveer Singh is currently enjoying the success of Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar 2.
