Producers Guild Of India Warns ‘Serious Consequences’ Over Last-Minute Project Walkouts Amid Ranveer Singh’s Don 3 Exit Row

Amid the ongoing controversy following the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) issuing a non-cooperation directive against Ranveer Singh over his sudden exit from Don 3, the Producers Guild of India has also released a statement addressing the “growing instances of talent, directors and technicians” going back on their commitments at the “eleventh hour.” The producers’ body has strongly condemned such practices that cause “disruption to the process of content development.”

Producers Guild Of India Issues Official Statement For Ranveer Singh On Don 3 Row

The Producers Guild of India stated, “We, the Producers Guild of India, have also received formal complaints from our members, Excel Entertainment Private Limited and Panorama Studios International Limited, regarding these issues arising just days before the commencement of principal photography.”

They continued, “No member of the industry should indulge in such behaviour that has, in these cases, led to substantial financial loss to our member producers as well as to other verticals in the industry. Such actions by any industry member have serious and far-reaching consequences and undermine the spirit of trust, professionalism and mutual respect on which the film industry is built.”

Furthermore, they added, “These instances have caused significant reputational damage, an adverse impact on the credibility and brand value of the films concerned, and jeopardised the livelihoods of hundreds of technicians and crew members who depend on these projects. We would also like to state in no uncertain terms that the Guild always stands for a free and fair business environment without encouraging any encumbrances or disruptions to the process of content production.”

Concluding, they said, “Any position to the contrary is not ethical and harms the collaborative spirit of our filmmaking community. We urge all parties to resolve their disputes amicably and we will strive to protect the fraternity’s interests.”

Producers Guild Doesn’t Mention Any Actors’ Names But The Production Houses

The producers’ body did not directly name any stars. However, they mention the recent cases of the Don 3 production house, which Ranveer Singh exited. They also reference the production banner Panorama Studios International Limited backing Ajay Devgn’s Drishyam 3. This suggests a link to Akshaye Khanna’s exit after Dhurandhar’s success.

Since last year, amid widespread excitement for Drishyam 3, reports had emerged that Akshaye Khanna had opted out. His exit was attributed to disagreements over his remuneration and role in the film. Reports claimed he demanded Rs 21 crore following the twin successes of Dhurandhar and Chhaava.
