The shooting of Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3 is scheduled to begin in January 2026, but one key casting decision still remains — who will play the film’s main villain? All eyes are now on the actor who will be cast in this pivotal negative role.

Farhan’s Don 3 has already faced some challenges. Initially, actor Vikrant Massey was signed on to play the lead antagonist, but he has now officially exited the project. Vikrant had earlier revealed that he chose to walk away because he felt the negative character lacked emotional depth. As a result, he didn’t feel connected to the role and decided not to continue with the film.

Now, there’s growing curiosity about who will replace him. Opposite Ranveer Singh — who has been cast as the new Don — the film requires a strong, impactful villain. Several prominent actors have been considered for the role, including Vijay Deverakonda and Aditya Roy Kapur, both of whom are said to be strong contenders.

However, one surprising name making headlines is Karanvir Mehra, the winner of Bigg Boss 18. According to a report by IMDb, Karanvir is currently leading the list of possible candidates for the antagonist’s role.
