Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3 finally gets rolling: Ranveer Singh - Kiara Advani to shoot from January 2026, Priyanka Chopra may return

The long-awaited Don 3, directed by Farhan Akhtar, which had been delayed for various reasons, is finally set to begin shooting in January 2026. Confirming this development, a source told Subhash K Jha, “Yes, there’s been a delay—but it couldn’t be helped. Ranveer Singh, who replaced Shah Rukh Khan in the franchise, had to deal with a wave of online trolling for ‘daring’ to step into SRK’s shoes. Farhan and Ranveer mutually decided to lie low and let the heat die down. Ranveer also needed time to physically and mentally prepare for the role, which requires rigorous martial arts training.” The source further added, “After that, Kiara Advani—who was signed on to replace Priyanka Chopra as the female lead—got pregnant. Farhan had to halt the film’s progress due to her changed circumstances. To add to that, Farhan got deeply immersed in his own acting schedule for the intense war film 120 Bahadur, where he plays Major Shaitan Singh. That film is scheduled to release on November 21, 2025.”...

Kangana Ranaut hits back at Karan Johar's cryptic post; calls out “Chacha Chaudhary” for “insulting her on national television”

Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut has once again taken a dig at filmmaker Karan Johar, stating that he insulted and bullied her on national television because she couldn’t speak English. The Queen actress has been engaged in a long-standing feud with Johar, and her latest comments come after the director posted a cryptic message on social media. For the unversed, the cold war between Johar and Ranaut started after the latter extended her support to Priyanka Chopra Jonas for opening up about the bullying and lobbying in the film industry. On Sunday, the Manikarnika actress took to her social media handle and wrote, “Ek waqt tha jab Chacha Chaudhary elite nepo mafia walon ke saath national television pe mujhe insult and bully karta tha because I couldn’t speak English (There was a time when Chacha Chaudhary would join the elite nepo mafia and would insult and bully me on national television because I couldn’t speak in English).” She further added, “Aaj inki Hindi dekh ke khayal aaya, abhi toh sirf tumhari Hindi sudhari hai aage aage dekho hota hai kya (Today, after seeing your comment, I realised your Hindi has improved. Just wait and watch what happens next).” A couple of weeks ago, PeeCee appeared on Dax Shephard's podcast, Armchair Expert, where she spoke about facing lobbying and bullying in the Hindi film industry, which is why she decided to move to the West. Though she did not mention the name of any particular person involved in it, many presumed it to be Karan Johar, including Kangana Ranaut. On top of that, an old video of KJo saying that he campaigned against Anushka Sharma when she was starting out resurfaced on social media, where he joked that he wanted to ‘murder’ Anushka Sharma’s career. Amid all the allegations and backlash online, on Saturday, the 50-year-old filmmaker shared a cryptic message on her Instagram story. “Laga lo ilzaam, hum jhukne waalon mein se nahi, jhoot ka ban jao ghulam, hum bolne waalon mein se nahi, jitna neecha dikhaoge, jitne aarop lagaoge, hum girne waalon mein se nahi, humara karam humari Vijay hai, aap utha lo talvaar, Hum marne waalon mein se nahi,” it read.
