Recently, after a long wait, producer Ritesh Sidhwani had confirmed that the sequel of the film is being made soon. While Farhan Akhtar is working on the script.

The source added, “After Shah Rukh’s exit, the makers of Don 3 were looking for a popular and credible name to carry forward the legacy of Don and they have finally zeroed in on Ranveer. The makers of the film will announce it soon.
