Ranveer Singh is easily one of the most successful and popular Bollywood actors of this generation. Last year, he created a lot of buzz after it was announced that he would be headlining Farhan Akhtar's Don 3 as the titular character. Now, Arjun Rampal has shared his views on the same. In a recent interview, he said that it's going to be fun.

Arjun Rampal on Don 3

In an interview with India Today, Arjun Rampal shared his thoughts on the casting of Ranveer Singh for Farhan Akhtar's Don 3. He said that people had the same kind of apprehension when Shah Rukh Khan replaced Amitabh Bachan in the franchise. He said: "People have a lot of speculations why Ranveer and not Shah Rukh Khan, both the actor's fan clubs are going after one another. The same thing happened when Mr Bachchan was Don and Shah Rukh was going to lift that mantle. I think it's a great franchise. It's like one of those franchises we should be all excited about and proud of. Something like a Bond series. See even in Bond, it keeps changing with time, so I think it's natural. It's not such a big deal."

He further said that it's going to be fun to watch Ranveer as the titular character. "It will also be fun and exciting to see Farhan back directing a film," the Om Shanti Om actor added.
