Vijay Deverakonda is not replacing Vikrant Massey in Don 3

Vikrant Massey, who has just had a release in the form of Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, is now preparing for the biggest challenge of his career: he will play the main antagonist opposite Ranveer Singh in Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3.

He will apparently change his look for the character, put on weight and train in special martial arts for his climactic combat with Ranveer Singh. But there have been recent reports about Massey being replaced by Vijay Deverakonda in the film. There is, however, no truth to these claims.
