Don 3 Cast: Ranveer Singh Steps Back From Farhan Akhtar's Gangster Film

Mumbai, December 23 - The massive success of director Aditya Dhar's spy action thriller Dhurandhar has taken everyone by surprise, and actor Ranveer Singh is reportedly in no mood to let the momentum fade away anytime soon. The film has grossed nearly 900 crores worldwide, heading towards 1000 crores. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Ranveer Singh was supposed to start director Farhan Akhtar's Don 3 post Dhurandhar; however, the success of the film has made the actor rethink his strategy. According to the report by Pinkvilla, Singh has opted out of the gangster action drama, as he doesn't want to be seen in back-to-back gangster films. It is said that the Gully Boy star has decided to back out of Don 3, and is now looking to fast-track his Zombie movie with director Jai Mehta. Since the actor already has Dhurandhar 2 scheduled for March 19, 2026, release, he asked Jai Mehta to prepone the shoot of the zombie thriller, reportedly titled Pralay.

Meanwhile, the makers have already reportedly started scouting for a new actor to step into the role of Don, with the intention of taking the film on floors by the end of January 2026.

Upcoming Films of Ranveer Singh Post Dhurandhar's Mega Success

Mumbai, December 15 - Ranveer Singh has entered the big league of Bollywood stars with Dhurandhar, which has turned the tide for him in a big way. The actor has been seeking big success for a long time, and his moment finally came when Aditya Dhar's directorial hit the big screen a week ago amid a thunderous response. Dhurandhar has stunned the trade with its extraordinary performance, already grossing over 500 crores worldwide in just 10 days. The spy actioner has become a cultural phenomenon. It is hard to predict where the film will end, but the current trajectory suggests it will become the highest-grossing Indian film of the year, beating Kantara Chapter 1's 850+ crore gross. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) With Dhurandhar delivering the much-needed big success for Ranveer, the question now is what is next for the actor? Well, there is Dhurandhar Part 2, which is already shot and will hit the big screens on March 19, 2026. The buzz for this is sky high, and the trade is already anticipating it to become one of the biggest blockbusters of 2026, which promises to be the best year for Indian cinema ever. Dhurandhar 2 emerged as an unexpected entry in Ranveer's line, as it was originally planned as a one-part film before the makers split it into two parts due to its long runtime. Apart from the spy actioner, Ranveer got a wild ride ahead in the next couple of years, and it will begin with Farhan Akhtar's Don 3. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) It has been quite a time since the reboot of the iconic franchise was announced, with Ranveer coming on board to play the titular character, replacing superstar Shah Rukh Khan. There were doubts about whether Simmba star could pull this iconic Don character off, but the mega success of Dhurandhar has blown away all those doubts and has made Don 3 one of the most anticipated upcoming films. The shoot of Don 3 is expected to kick off in January 2026, for grand worldwide release in late 2026 or 2027. After this, Ranveer will step into another uncharted territory of the Zombie world. While the official announcement of the film is yet to be made, reliable reports have confirmed that the actor is teaming up with director Jai Mehta for a Zombie film, titled Pralay. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Zombie thriller is one of the genres which has been explored much in Indian cinema, and Ranveer Singh is expected to bring his own signature energy in this. It is said that the film revolves around a man trying to protect his family as Mumbai turns into a zombie wasteland. It is expected to be a VFX-heavy and undoubtedly one of the most exciting ones to watch out for. Currently, Ranveer has these aforementioned three films in his pipeline. But according to a recent report, the actor has also discussed a mythological film with Aditya Dhar, which is likely to be their next collaboration after Dhurandhar 2. However, there are not many details available yet regarding this biggie, but it is certain to happen soon. Stay tuned...

120 Bahadur vs Mastiii 4 Box Office: A Dud First Week Total For Both Films

Mumbai, November 28 - The first-week box office collection for Mastiii 4 and 120 Bahadur have turned out to be highly disappointing, with both films failing to attract audiences despite arriving on relatively clear release frames. Both films were almost non-starters and ended up with poor first-week totals. Director Milap Zaveri, who recently scored an unexpected box office hit with Deewaniyat, witnessed a major turnaround with the adult comedy, Mastiii 4, which recorded a washout first-week performance, collecting just around 13.75 crores net (approximately 16.50 crores gross) in India. The film's overseas performance was equally underwhelming, adding only an estimated 1.50 crores to its 18 crores worldwide tally. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The opening week box office performance of Masti 4 is far from the expected one for a brand-backed comedy franchise. Poor word-of-mouth and minimal traction during weekdays ensured that the film never gained momentum after its modest opening. Tere Ishk Mein Day 1 Box Office Trend: Dhanush Joins Rajinikanth In The Elite Double-Digit Opening List On the other hand, 120 Bahadur managed to score slightly better numbers but still ended its first week on a forgettable note. The Farhan Akhtar-led war drama earned approximately 15 crores net (18 crores gross) domestically, with its worldwide collection touching roughly 20 crores. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) 120 Bahadur opened below Mastiii 4 but couldn't take the momentum into the weekdays after the decent opening weekend. With competition increasing from fresh releases and major titles on the horizon, the chances of any late turnaround for either film remain slim. Projections now suggest that the combined domestic total of both films is headed for under 35 crores net, marking one of the weakest twin releases with familiar faces in recent times. Both films will depend heavily on digital and satellite rights to recover their investments as their box office journey nears its end. Stay tuned...

120 Bahadur vs Mastiii 4 Box Office Comparison: A Forgettable Weekend For Bollywood

Mumbai, November 24 - Bollywood witnessed one of the most disastrous weekends as both 120 Bahadur and Mastiii 4 delivered modest numbers at the box office, despite arriving with brand value and familiar faces. While Farhan Akhtar's war drama 120 Bahadur managed to put better numbers than the other one, neither film could create the kind of impact the industry was hoping for. 120 Bahadur, based on the Battle of Rezang La, opened on a lukewarm note but showed some signs of improvement over the weekend. After a low start, the film witnessed growth on Saturday and maintained the same pace on Sunday, taking its 3-day India net total to approximately 10 crore. While the jump indicates favourable word of mouth in certain pockets, the overall weekend remained below expectations considering the film's scale and subject. Check Out Box Office Comparison of Both Films (Net Collection) Day 120 Bahadur Mastiii 4 Day 1 ₹ 2.25 Cr ₹ 2.75 Cr Day 2 ₹ 3.85 Cr ₹ 2.75 Cr Day 3 ₹ 4.00 Cr ₹ 3.00 Cr Total ₹ 10.10 Cr ₹ 8.50 Cr Estimated Collection* On the other hand, Masti 4, the fourth instalment in the once-popular adult-comedy franchise, failed to capitalise on the brand name. The film remained flat through the weekend, collecting around 8.50 crore across its first three days. With negligible growth from Friday to Sunday, the franchise's fatigue has become evident, and the film has turned out to be one of the weakest performers in the series. In comparison, 120 Bahadur holds the edge in both growth and total weekend collection. However, with neither film delivering a substantial opening, the weekend as a whole has turned out to be forgettable for Bollywood. Low occupancies, cautious audience response, and lack of strong buzz contributed to the subdued performance. Stay tuned...

Farhan Akhtar's 120 Bahadur Marks Historic First with Defence Theatre Release, Lands November 21st

In a landmark move that marks a significant chapter in Indian cinema, the highly anticipated Farhan Akhtar starrer, '120 Bahadur', has achieved a historic first: it is set to become the first film ever to release in Defence theatres across India. This unprecedented distribution strategy will bring the film directly to the armed forces community, signifying a unique and inclusive approach to cinematic release. The announcement has garnered widespread attention, not only for its novelty but also for the powerful message it conveys. While details about the agreement and the logistics of this extensive release are still emerging, the decision to screen '120 Bahadur' in Defence theatres underscores a special connection between the film's theme and the ethos of the Indian armed forces. Adding immense star power to the buzz, none other than superstar Salman Khan took to social media to commend the film. On November 6th, he tweeted, "Bahut kamaal trailer hai! Congratulations @FarOutAkhtar and the entire team of #120Bahadur. Yeh kahani har Indian ke dil mein utregi" (What an amazing trailer! Congratulations @FarOutAkhtar and the entire team of #120Bahadur. This story will reside in every Indian's heart). Salman Khan's endorsement, shared widely, further amplifies the film's reach and impact. Bahut kamaal trailer hai! Congratulations @FarOutAkhtar and the entire team of #120Bahadur Yeh kahani har Indian ke dil mein utregi @J10Kassim https://t.co/sAzubYYrJJ pic.twitter.com/9dAan5ynnP— Salman Khan (@BeingSalmanKhan) November 6, 2025 The official poster, which accompanied the announcement and has been widely circulated, reveals key details: the film is "BASED ON THE BATTLE OF REZANG LA". This instantly grounds the film in a powerful historical context, promising a gritty and emotional war drama. The Battle of Rezang La, a legendary last stand by a small company of Indian soldiers against a much larger Chinese force during the 1962 Sino-Indian War, is one of the most heroic and inspiring chapters in Indian military history. Farhan Akhtar, known for his versatile acting, directing, and producing talents, has often been associated with projects that resonate with national pride and human spirit. His presence in a film based on such a pivotal event, coupled with the unique Defence theatre release, makes '120 Bahadur' particularly poignant. It allows the film to reach an audience that lives and breathes the very spirit of courage and sacrifice it portrays. The film is presented by Excel Entertainment and Trigger Happy Studios, with the tagline "Hum Peeche Nahin Hatenge!" (We will not back down!) This innovative distribution model goes beyond traditional theatrical releases, which primarily target multiplexes and single screens in civilian areas. By extending its reach to cantonments and military establishments nationwide, '120 Bahadur' is not just breaking new ground in distribution; it's fostering a direct engagement with the men and women in uniform and their families. It provides them with access to contemporary Indian cinema in their own communities, a gesture that is likely to be deeply appreciated. Industry observers are hailing this move as a potential game-changer. It opens up a vast, previously underserved audience segment for filmmakers and offers a unique platform for films with patriotic, inspirational, or action-oriented themes to connect directly with a highly relevant viewership. The makers of '120 Bahadur' and Farhan Akhtar are poised to etch their names in the annals of Indian film history with this pioneering effort. As the film gears up for its release, all eyes will be on how this unique strategy unfolds and the impact it creates within both the film industry and the esteemed Defence community across India.

120 Bahadur to Hold Paid Previews Three Days Early in a Rare Move

In an unconventional and confident strategy, the producers of the upcoming war drama "120 Bahadur" have announced that they will hold paid preview screenings of the film three days prior to its official nationwide release. This decision marks a rare instance in Hindi cinema where audiences will have the opportunity to see a major film well before its scheduled debut.

To mark the 63rd anniversary of the Battle of Rezang La (1962), paid previews of ‘120 Bahadur’ will be held across the nation on 18th November.

The nationwide theatrical release of "120 Bahadur" is scheduled for Friday, November 21, 2025. This strategic move by producers Excel Entertainment and Trigger Happy Studios serves a dual purpose. Firstly, it acts as a tribute to the valor of the 120 soldiers of the 13 Kumaon Regiment's Charlie Company, who defended their post against a much larger Chinese force. Secondly, it is a bold display of the makers' confidence in the film, leveraging early audience reactions to build positive word-of-mouth in the crucial days leading up to the wide release. 120 Bahadur chronicles the extraordinary courage of the Indian soldiers led by Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, a role portrayed by Farhan Akhtar. Major Singh was posthumously awarded the Param Vir Chakra, India's highest military decoration, for his leadership and bravery in the battle. The film is directed by Razneesh Ghai and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar, and Amit Chandrra. The marketing for the film has been extensive, including the recent launch of a special commemorative 'My Stamp' featuring the Rezang La War Memorial, which was unveiled by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh.The film's trailer, narrated by Amitabh Bachchan, and its music have already generated significant buzz, crossing 200 million views across various platforms. With this early preview initiative, 120 Bahadur aims to create a powerful emotional connection with the audience, allowing the story of sacrifice and bravery to shape the public narrative ahead of its official release.

Rewriting the Verdict The Decades-Long Journey of Bollywoods Most Misunderstood Masterpieces

In the unforgiving world of Bollywood, the Friday box office verdict is often seen as the final word. Yet, history is littered with cinematic gems that were dismissed upon arrival, only to be resurrected by a generation of viewers who saw the magic that critics and initial audiences missed. These are the films that failed to make money but went on to make history, transitioning from box office disasters to beloved cult legends. Their journeys prove that a film's true worth isn't always measured in opening weekend collections but in its enduring ability to connect, entertain, and provoke thought long after the "flop" label has faded. Here’s a look at some of Bollywood's most celebrated phoenixes that rose from the ashes of commercial failure. Mera Naam Joker (1970): The Magnum Opus That Broke Its Creator Raj Kapoor's four-hour epic was a financial catastrophe that nearly bankrupted him. Audiences rejected its melancholic tone. Years after its failure, its ultimate cult status was cemented when television allowed viewers to watch the full director's cut at their own pace. This home-viewing experience allowed audiences to finally appreciate the profound, autobiographical masterpiece that was too overwhelming for a single theatrical viewing. Mera Naam Joker: Fact File Director: Raj Kapoor Starring: Raj Kapoor, Simi Garewal, Manoj Kumar, Rishi Kapoor The Turning Point: Home viewing of the full director's cut on television. Defining Legacy: Considered Raj Kapoor's most personal, ambitious, and autobiographical project. Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro (1983): The Satire That Was Ahead of Its Time Released in just four theaters, Kundan Shah's biting satire on corruption sank without a trace. The film's legacy was built through its circulation on home video (VHS tapes) and its broadcast on Doordarshan, India's national television network. This brought its genius to a wider audience, and the legendary Mahabharata scene is now considered a textbook example of satire in film schools across the country. Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro: Fact File Director: Kundan Shah Starring: Naseeruddin Shah, Ravi Baswani, Om Puri, Pankaj Kapur The Turning Point: Broadcasts on Doordarshan & circulation on VHS tapes. Defining Legacy: The chaotic and legendary Mahabharata climax scene. Andaz Apna Apna (1994): The Comedy That Laughed Last A shocking commercial failure upon release due to poor marketing, this comedy masterpiece found its second life in a way no one could have predicted. Its true resurrection came via satellite television, where endless reruns on channels like Sony Max turned it into a national phenomenon. Its quirky characters and endlessly quotable dialogues became ingrained in India’s pop culture, ensuring its legacy not in theaters, but in the living rooms of millions. Andaz Apna Apna: Fact File Director: Rajkumar Santoshi Starring: Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Raveena Tandon, Karisma Kapoor The Turning Point: Constant reruns on satellite television. Defining Legacy: The characters of Crime Master Gogo and Teja; dialogues becoming everyday slang. Swades (2004): The Understated Gem That Found Its Home Considered too slow and didactic upon release, this Shah Rukh Khan starrer was a box office disappointment. The film's incredible turnaround is quantified by its massive success on television, where it has consistently garnered huge TRPs (Television Rating Points) with every broadcast. This overwhelming response proved that the film's heartfelt patriotism resonated deeply, confirming its status as a classic that simply needed a different medium. Swades: Fact File Director: Ashutosh Gowariker Starring: Shah Rukh Khan, Gayatri Joshi The Turning Point: Consistently high television ratings (TRPs) during broadcasts. Defining Legacy: The song "Yeh Jo Des Hai Tera" becoming an unofficial anthem for Indians living abroad. Lakshya (2004): The Coming-of-Age Story That Found Its Target Despite critical acclaim, Farhan Akhtar's film underperformed commercially. Its powerful legacy is marked by its enduring influence on Indian youth; the film is widely credited with inspiring a surge of interest in joining the armed forces. Its adoption as a motivational anthem has cemented its place as a film whose cultural impact far outweighs its box office numbers. Lakshya: Fact File Director: Farhan Akhtar Starring: Hrithik Roshan, Preity Zinta, Amitabh Bachchan The Turning Point: Adoption by youth as a go-to motivational film. Defining Legacy: Credited with inspiring a renewed interest among youth to join the Indian Army. Tumbbad (2018): The Horror That Rewrote Its Own Fate This visually stunning folk tale had a quiet run at the box office. Its resurrection was driven by streaming platforms, leading to a theatrical re-release in 2024 where its first week's collection surpassed the lifetime earnings of its original run. This is a powerful modern example of how a passionate fanbase can directly rewrite a film's financial and critical history. Tumbbad: Fact File Director: Rahi Anil Barve Starring: Sohum Shah The Turning Point: Word-of-mouth phenomenon on streaming platforms. Defining Legacy: Its 2024 re-release out-earning its entire original theatrical run. These films serve as a vital reminder that the Friday verdict is not always final. True cinematic art often requires time to find its audience, proving that while box office numbers fade, the impact of a great story is eternal.
