A year after it was announced that Bollywood actor Kiara Advani had come on board for the third installment of action-thriller Don, it is now being reported that mom-to-be has opted out of the project owing to her pregnancy with husband Sidharth Malhotra. As per Pinkvilla, Kiara has prioritised motherhood and the makers are now on the lookout for a new female lead.
Farhan Akhtar’s directorial stars Ranveer Singh in the lead. The role was previously played by Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan. In 2024, Mid-day reported, “Ranveer and Kiara will start their physical prep, beginning with agility training, from late March. Experts in martial arts from Thailand have been roped in." Seems like the makers need to find their leading lady to ensure there aren’t any delays in the schedule.
