Amid the controversy over Ranveer Singh’s exit from Don 3, it has been reported that the actor has decided not to speak about the matter for at least the next 18 months. Reportedly, Singh will not speak to any journalist or reporter until the release of his next film, Jai Mehta’s Pralay.

A trade journalist, quoted by the Free Press Journal, said, “I met him personally,” and added, “And he told me he will not speak on the Don 3 controversy, nor will he give any interviews for at least 18 months.”

The fallout between Ranveer Singh and Farhan Akhtar over Don 3 has become one of Bollywood’s biggest controversies. According to multiple online reports, Singh exited the film due to creative differences with the makers. Several reports also said that he was unhappy with repeated delays in production and the absence of a locked final script.

What had initially appeared to be a routine casting change has since escalated into a legal matter. Akhtar’s Excel Entertainment has demanded Rs 45 crore in compensation, while the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) had issued a non-cooperation directive against the actor. The directive has now been revoked.

Pralay is a post-apocalyptic zombie thriller set in a post-apocalyptic Mumbai. The film will reportedly use AI-driven visuals to depict a crumbling and decayed version of the city. The project will be directed by Jai Mehta, the son of filmmaker Hansal Mehta, and will mark his theatrical directorial debut. Jai Mehta has previously co-directed Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story and Lootere, and is known for his realistic storytelling style.

The film is being co-produced by Hansal Mehta and Sameer Nair’s Applause Entertainment. Reportedly, the script of Pralay has been finalised and shooting is likely to begin soon. For now, Singh is said to be maintaining silence on the Don 3 controversy until the release of his next film.
