In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, Farhan said the situation reinforced an important lesson: “Nothing can be taken for granted until you actually have it on film.” Despite the setback, he emphasized that his overall journey in cinema has been fulfilling, marked by collaborations with leading actors and creative professionals.The dispute began when Ranveer reportedly walked out of *Don 3* following the release of *Dhurandhar* in December 2025. The unexpected decision is said to have caused significant financial strain, with nearly ₹40 crore already spent on pre-production by Excel Entertainment, co-founded by Farhan and Ritesh Sidhwani.Reports suggest that the disagreement escalated to the Producers Guild of India, where both parties presented their positions. While Farhan’s side claimed the script had been approved at every stage, Ranveer allegedly cited delays and concerns about the project’s direction. The Guild has advised both sides to pursue a legal resolution.Despite the controversy, Farhan remains optimistic, stating that occasional challenges are part of a long creative journey and should be handled with resilience.
