Bollywood star Ranveer Singh, who will be playing the lead role in Don 3, has also been roped in to play Shaktimaan, reported Pinkvilla. According to the report, the Ram-Leela actor will play the titular role in the Basil Joseph directorial, which is said to go on floors in May of 2025. A source close to the actor told Pinkvilla, "Ranveer will undergo workshops to get into the part of Don.

Farhan is targeting to take Don 3 on floors from August/September 2024.”
“Right after Don 3, it's time for Shaktimaan. The film has been in the writing stage for over 3 years now and the team has finally cracked a script that's worthy of doing justice to the legacy of Shaktimaan. The film will be directed by Basil Joseph, with Sony Pictures India and Sajid Nadiadwala as the producers,” Pinkvilla quoted a source as saying.
