On X, Kiara posted, "Thrilled to be part of the iconic Don franchise and to be working with this incredible team!

Posting the clip on X, Farhan Akhtar wrote, "Welcome to the Don universe @advani_kiara #Don3."
While there were initially mixed reactions to Ranveer Singh stepping into the shoes of Don, the makers have expressed their confidence in the actor's abilities and believe he is the perfect choice to lead the franchise forward.
In August 2023, Farhan Akhtar, the director of the franchise, unveiled Ranveer Singh as the new Don through a special announcement video. The teaser showcased Ranveer in a gripping manner, seated with his back to the camera, before dramatically revealing himself as Don. Notably, Shah Rukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan have previously portrayed the character in the franchise's earlier installments.
While Ranveer's casting has been confirmed, an official announcement regarding the remaining cast of Don 3 is still eagerly awaited, leaving fans and enthusiasts anticipating further updates.
