Kriti Sanon Fuels ‘Don 3’ Speculation as Viral Video Sparks Casting Buzz After Kiara Advani’s Exit

Speculation around Kriti Sanon’s possible involvement in Farhan Akhtar’s much-awaited Don 3 has intensified, especially after a recent video of the actor surfaced online. The footage, now making rounds on social media, shows Kriti blushing and smiling as photographers affectionately addressed her as “Lady Don,” adding fuel to the already buzzing rumours.

The chatter around the film’s casting took off when reports emerged suggesting Kiara Advani, initially roped in to star opposite Ranveer Singh in the action thriller, might have exited the project, allegedly due to her pregnancy. This development immediately sparked conversations about who might fill the role of Roma — a character previously portrayed by Priyanka Chopra in Don 2. Kriti’s name quickly gained traction as a possible replacement.

The viral clip was captured during Kriti’s recent outing in Mumbai alongside her sister, Nupur Sanon. Dressed in a chic blue sleeveless ensemble, the actor was greeted by enthusiastic paparazzi who playfully hailed her as “Lady Don.” Kriti responded with a bashful smile, neither confirming nor denying the rumours, but leaving fans to eagerly speculate.

In the video, the photographers can be heard calling out, “Kriti ji, Don 3! Lady Don! Rukiye na, Lady Don,” much to the delight of bystanders. The actor’s cheerful reaction further stoked excitement, with social media buzzing over the possibility of her stepping into the iconic role.

Though Don 3, headlined by Ranveer Singh, remains one of the most hotly anticipated films in Bollywood’s upcoming slate, the official announcement regarding the female lead is still awaited. Neither Farhan Akhtar nor the film’s production team has issued any statement addressing the casting rumours.

Meanwhile, Kriti Sanon continues to keep busy with her other projects. She is currently filming Tere Ishk Mein, directed by Aanand L Rai, alongside Dhanush. The romantic drama is being billed as a spiritual successor to Raanjhanaa, adding yet another exciting title to Kriti’s growing filmography.
