Bollywood actress Kiara Advani has reportedly stepped away from Farhan Akhtar’s much-anticipated film Don 3 following her recent pregnancy announcement. The news left fans wondering about the future of the action-packed franchise starring Ranveer Singh.
Why Kiara Opted Out
Kiara was confirmed as the female lead opposite Ranveer Singh in February 2024, marking her first collaboration with Singh and Farhan Akhtar. However, just days after announcing her pregnancy on March 1, 2025, reports emerged that she has mutually decided to exit the project. As per a report by Pinkvilla, Kiara chose to focus on her personal life as she prepares to welcome her first child.
Ongoing Projects Before a Break
Despite stepping away from Don 3, Kiara is currently completing her commitments, including War 2 alongside Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, as well as Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups with Yash. It is said that she aims to finish these projects before taking a break from work.
What Happens to Don 3?
Don 3 has been in the spotlight since Ranveer Singh was announced as the new Don in August 2023. With Farhan Akhtar confirming that production will begin in 2025, Kiara’s exit raises questions about her replacement. Vikrant Massey is rumored to play the antagonist, but neither Akhtar nor the Don 3 team has issued an official statement about Kiara’s departure or who will step in as the new female lead.
