India, Jan. 31 -- Eagle-eyed fans have spotted that filmmaker-actor Farhan Akhtar is not following actor Ranveer Singh on Instagram. This has set off fresh chatter around the actor's much-speculated exit from Don 3. What's interesting is that Ranveer continues to follow Farhan on the social media platform. The subtle move is being widely discussed online, especially given the lingering uncertainty surrounding the film's status. However, some fans have also questioned whether Farhan even followed Ranveer on Instagram in the first place. This development comes months after reports first suggested that Ranveer has stepped away from Don 3. Industry buzz around the project intensified in December last year, when it was reported that the actor had distanced himself from the film following the box office dominance of Dhurandhar (2025). Around the same time, it was also said that Farhan had temporarily put Don 3 on hold, redirecting his attention towards Jee Le Zaraa, which was announced in 2021 with Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Katrina Kaif, and Alia Bhatt. Ranveer was officially announced as the new face of the Don franchise in 2023, with the makers unveiling his first look and positioning the casting as a significant new chapter for the series. Don (2006) and Don 2 (2011), both directed by Farhan, starred Shah Rukh Khan in the titular role. htc...
