Don and Don 2 with Shah Rukh Khan were quite significant hits in the business. Fans adored the Don spin-off, which starred Amitabh Bachchan. There have, however, been some rumours that a threequel doesn’t has Shah Rukh Khan in it, leaving the fans infuriated.
Don celebrated its 16th anniversary last year, and social media platforms are buzzing about it once more. The supporters continue to think that Don 3 could be on the horizon.
In 2022, Bollywood Hungama reported that Shah Rukh Khan seems least interested in doing Don 3. The portal quoted a source as saying, “It’s not like Shah Rukh Khan didn’t like the script. It’s just that Shah Rukh was not fully convinced. He knows Don is an iconic role and would like to step back into the character once he’s completely confident of the script. The box office scenario is not very healthy and he wants to be doubly sure before signing on the dotted line.”
The report further added, “As of now, Farhan Akhtar has gone back to the drawing board and we can hope that the next time he meets SRK, the superstar will happily sign Don 3. The fans would be on cloud nine. When the speculations around the film generated so much craze, imagine what would happen on the day the makers announce Don 3!”
After this news surfed on the internet again today, the makers of Don faced massive backlash from the fans. It clearly seems that Fans are not happy with Shah Rukh Khan not being on board. Have a look at some tweets some of the fans’ tweets:
A year ago, Farhan Akhtar posted a lovely message for Don’s 16th anniversary on his Instagram account. He assembled images of Don into the brief movie, created a video collage, and uploaded it with an amusing commentary using emojis. He also said, “Happy birthday, Don. For sixteen years and counting…”
When the video went live, the supporters’ anxiety and dismay that it wasn’t an announcement for Don 3 could not be contained. Many of them even urged the director to start working on the third installment as soon as possible. Seeing all those flags, one of them commented, “I thought this was a Don 3 announcement, but here we are.” The words “Last tk wait kiya k kahi kch dikh jaye don 3 se related” and “Please tell me this is a hint for the next one” were written in another remark, respectively. Internet user: “Dekh raha hai binod kaise don 3 announce kiye bina celebration ho raha hai.” “It was the perfect moment to announce Don 3,” a distraught admirer wrote.
As far as we are aware, Don 3 won’t be heading our way, but Farhan Akhtar & Zoya will be teaming up with the three girls—Katrina Kaif, Priyanka Chopra, and Alia Bhatt—for Jee Le Zara.
