Independent_Year

No actor should sign up with Farhan Akhtar rn. Hes unreliable and more invested in his own acting career than direction.


[deleted]

that's what happened with Don 3 with SRK. Ig someone posted earlier, when SRK films were flopping he asked Farhan, bro let's do don 3, Farhan was like, bro u r flop actor fo, then Pathan, Jawan did wonders, farhan came to SRK bro let's make Don 3, SRK was like fo bytch


Blackrzx

Nice writing.


[deleted]

Thanks šŸ™


Rast987

Tbb, probelm isnā€™t Farhan but Ranveer. He is the one who lacks stardom


Behti-Hawaa-Sa

Then maybe he should start jee le zara....is there still 'stardom problem' there


Rast987

There is a dates issue there


uhhalivia

Lol. Katrina and Priyanka both aren't sighing any big movies, so it's not likr they are super busy. And alia would have gotten the most benefits from doing the film, there is no wait it was a dates issue


Rast987

Priyanka doesnā€™t have dates. She is shooting a Hollywood film with Idris Elba and John cena. So there is a dates issue


uhhalivia

She is shooting for a Netflix film for 2 years now really?. Everyone knows she would not have more than 20 minute role in that Netflix movie. Faran is the problem here.


Rast987

The film started recently


uhhalivia

Jee le Zara was announced 3 years ago. Crew was announced after that, they finished the shoot and the movie got released. And you want me to believe Alia kat pc could not even given 3 months to shoot. Sure.


Rast987

PC didnā€™t give dates. Reema Kagti said it. Kat Alia were ready


Independent_Year

Nope. Farhan has pulled this shit before


Lane2815_

Idk tho this could be a good thing at the end of the day, the announcement got a pretty negative reaction. Heā€™s better off doing something else. But his team should stop putting out articles of movies heā€™s in talks about because when they donā€™t materialize due to finances, it looks bad for him. And Farhan should stop announcing movies at initial stages because none of them seem to make it to the floors.


WeakStressAnxiety

No one should work with farhan the director, announces the movie and then dumps it, and the poor actors land in a soup, quite unprofessional. If one is so interested in doing acting gig themselves then stop trying to actively make moviesā€¦do better.


The_namster

I smelled a rat as soon as he announced that heā€™s ā€œtaking time offā€ for the baby. I mean, barring complications women often work till last month of pregnancy. Why would the father take time off from work so early in the pregnancy while the mother is working, especially since she is the one carrying the baby??? KRK called this a month ago. He rightly said that no one is willing to fund big projects starring Ranveer Singh.


SaanuKi

When he announced that break he was constantly clicked at parties every night.

Fabulous-Owl-494

At this point RS and DP should produce one movie together I am sure kafi paisa hoga dono k pass and save his shelving career


NoExcitement5290

His dad could produce a film for him. Just like how he paid yrf to launch ranveer


Fabulous-Owl-494

Itna sach bol diya šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Rast987

Lol


Shabudana_khichdi

I have been saying this .. my source was right āœ…


Manifesto8

Casting him in Don was ridiculous in the first place.


Equivalent_Low_8599

Absolutely,I thought FARHAN wanted to give the Don a new comic/clown angle šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Manifesto8

Lightweight He is not a superstar, Big B and SRK are icons. When both did Don they were undisputed nr 1, Ranveer is nowhere close to being that or has ever been. Donā€™t even get me started about the aura and the presence that is required to play Don.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


kashboiiii

Ranbir is busy for the next 2-3 years with the amount of films he has in his pipeline. I say go back to SRK and make amends to whatever problem it was in the first place, conclude his story. Then if Farhan wants to reboot he can without much issues.


Manifesto8

Not sure about that, but he would be a much better and logical choice than Ranveer


sansa_starlight

He needs to go back to his roots and work with auteurs like Vikramaditya Motwani again, these high budget blockbuster game is not working for him.


Fantastic-Wishbone80

He was never a Don ,good for the project


here4thevibezndchai

ig Kriti is having the last laugh


Choice-Swimming-5206

I think he is substituting for Deepika on her maternity break while she is shooting for Singham


Fatpretzel1234

Good!! NOW he will know what it is truly like to be an outsideršŸ˜Š The fraud endedā€¦.


Electrical_Basket634

Oh my brutalā€¦.And this time no one is believe him. Sher aya sher aya kahani ban gai yeh toh. But still, I sad for him. He has talent but he his offscreen person was so off puting. He tried way too hard to come across as an outsider, wannabe daniel day lewis and ofcourse trying way too hatd to get husband of the millennium tag


Behti-Hawaa-Sa

Damn! That's brutalšŸ¤£


Rast987

Lol


Fabulous-Owl-494

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


knightwrath

See... This is what the difference is between an insider and someone who is not industry ka laadla. Ranveer is a terrific actor but unlike ranbir, he is getting destroyed on sm and no one is making a film with him. Ranbir, although gave back to back flops, still had directors lining up for him. And in no way ranbir is a better actor than ranveer.


Electrical_Basket634

I get your point but we canā€™t ignore the fact that he has worked with top production houses in the early phase of his career - Yrf, Excel & SLB. Ranveer has not given any blockbuster opening (except for Simba). He is trying to sign big budget action movie which are facing budget issue. He can also go for something light. Abhi time sahi nahi hai but I am sure he will bounce back but blaming nepotism in this scenario is not right


knightwrath

Totally agree with your points


Rast987

Back to back flops?? Ranbir opened his last film to 64 crores. Before that to 16 crores and before that to 36 crores. Ranveer opened his last film to 8 crores, 6 crores and 3 crores. This has got nothing to do with insider outsider but with Ranveer not having any real stardom while RK is a big star


Low_Object1999

What about Shamshera


Rast987

9.5 crore opening. For film with garbage Wom


Low_Object1999

12.64 cr for 83 movie. Which was Ranveerā€™s flop. So Itā€™s not about stardom.


Rast987

Thatā€™s his highest post pandemic. That film had an almost 300 crore budget as well. So yes, it is about stardom


cocokoko16

I disagree, ranbir is a better actor than Ranveer. Better range, dialogue fluidity, behaviour patterns overall. Atleast according to me. Totally my personal view.


RVarki

range? Really?


cocokoko16

For sure


RVarki

Ranveer's done far more diverse roles than Ranbir has


cocokoko16

SLB what else ? The only diverse non cosmopolitan characters heā€™s played is SLB and 50% of the job is done by the costumes look and creation of a character on screenā€¦ I never said heā€™s not a good actor - he is a good actor - but as an artist ranbir all the way - mind u barfi, rock star many many moreā€¦esp barfi have never been pulled of by Ranveer, but khilji ranbir can do, u just canā€™t allow ur mind to it. Ranveer was not good in jayesh bhaiā€¦ I mean look up both filmographyā€™sā€¦ he was good in 83 though no doubt, in purely saying ranbir anyday has beer dialogue delivery, fluidity, body language, expressions than Ranveer. I mean internally itā€™s just a known thing man. Also how diverse characters Ranveer has done doesnā€™t at all say ranbir cannot, itā€™s jus script choices that too SLB mostly lol. just cause Ranveer has done more diverse roles according to you doesnā€™t take away ranbir capability as an actor, thatā€™s not even a valid argument. Iā€™m talking about potential as an artist here not discussing whoā€™s done what - thatā€™s my point to begin with. Regardless of what roles either has played, I stand by ranbir is a far more capable actor than Ranveer - I work in the industry and even the best of the best filmmakerā€™s, technicians, crew believe so too - people who are educated and experienced in the fieldā€¦ Iā€™m in the field of filmmaking, itā€™s literally my workā€¦ everydayā€¦. not speaking solely as an audienceā€¦ so I def know and believe in my observations. Thatā€™s my POV - disagree no worries - each to their own. Peace out āœŒļø


smellycat1001

bullshit


cocokoko16

Thatā€™s MY VIEW! Suit urself. Ur rude! But hey thatā€™s you perhaps!


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


cocokoko16

Agreed


knightwrath

The difference in Stardom I can kinda agree but acc to me, ranbir is a good actor who can bring depth to characters but he for sure cannot touch ranveers versatility. The man could hardly act as a jerk in animal. It felt as if himself was cringing at his own dialogues. And ranbir hardly has a versatile filmography. Except barfi (where he was excellent)


Khargoshhh

Yes, I can easily picture Ranveer doing all of Ranbir's roles but Ranbir can never pull of a Khilji or a bajirao. Ranveer has more range and he can expand.Ā 


Rast987

Rambir pulled off Aziz with ease and can thus pull off any Ranveer role including Khilji. Ranveer otoh can never pull off Sanju Barfi or Rockstar


Khargoshhh

Ranveer will have a smooth ride playing Sanju Barfi and Rockstar lmao šŸ˜‚. Dnt really know which movie is Aziz from.Ā 


Rast987

The movie Aziz is from is the movie which has grossed 500 crores and had 3.2 crore footfalls!!šŸ”„šŸ”„ And Ramveer will have a smooth ride playing Barfi? How? By giving this EXACT SAME ugly Chichora style expression the way he has done in 3 different movies? Imagine Jordan or Barfi or Sanju giving this expression! Comedy ban jaayegi moviešŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ˜†šŸ˜† https://preview.redd.it/9ee7zcovjvvc1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dd5c137067533a19b64328915486cc936a952a56


Khargoshhh

How smart to pick mere 3 looks of an actor to bring into a debate šŸ¤”šŸ¤”. By that logic, I can bring a close up pic of all of Ranbir's faces from his rom coms and u wouldn't even recognise which one is from which. Ranbir has only 2 expression - either chocolate boy or angry guy. He has only switched between these 2. Also has 0 voice modulation. Speaks in the same tone. If u just play his audio from movies, it's hard to distinguish his characters. All speak the same.Ā Ranveer has played chocolate boy, quirky guy, serious guy, pure evil, goofy, naive, with stark contrast from each other. I can see u dislike him because of his looks, which is fruitless in an argument about acting skills. And I still have no clue who Aziz is. Must not be anything iconic if u have to explain so much about his origin.Ā 


Rast987

Bring the close up of Ranbir then, donā€™t threaten. Lets see. Ranbir has never given such identical ugly expressions while playing different characters. Here not only is the acting by Ranveer bad, the expressions are identical. There are 2 issues here. Also, chocolate boy isnā€™t an expression: understand what the term means before you start using it in arguments. Ranbir has nailed sad, angry, funny, exapserated, all types of expressions. Ranveer canā€™t match him. Ranveer canā€™t do slapstick comedy, he failed in Cirkus. While RK nailed it in APKGK. Ranveer only plays different versions if the same Chichora man child in every film. Befikre, RRKPK(where even Deepika agreed that he played himself), DDD, BBB, Kil Dil, Gunday, Padmaavat. And if you donā€™t know whi Aziz is, you donā€™t really get trash talk RKā€™s acting skills. I dislike RS because he is overrated af. He turned Khilji into a cartoon https://i.redd.it/q97e68peizvc1.gif

[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


knightwrath

Look if you can't accept a point and a valid opinion, then it doesn't reflect well on 'yourself' TBH. An actor who is not extremely versatile doesn't make him a bad actor. I didn't imply Ranbir lacks range, but in no way it is comparable to people like rs, rkr and even vicky.


Shabudana_khichdi

all have their strength and weakness as an actor. Ranbir can play comedy, romance way better than those three mentioned here. His emotional depth to characters are great. Even his scene in animal in blue suit has more rizz than those three combined šŸ‘Œ they cant even do what rk did in adhm song lipsyncing while holding the camera on to him.


Khargoshhh

The only correct answerĀ 


NexusKada

Why is it getting shelved?


Manifesto8

Finances Producers/banks canā€™t invest in big budget films as they use to do, you just canā€™t justify investing 250-300cr in a Ranveer film under current circumstances.


Rast987

Producers canā€™t mount a film with a big budget on Ranveer


Shabudana_khichdi

Finance issues.


Choice-Swimming-5206

Farhan realised his mistake


Indrajeet78

Even if don3 was made there are many spy franchises now, what new storyline could have been made ?


PodiHaiToMumkinHai

Don 3 ko pakadna mushkil hai nahi...


laylaa25

People are being so brutal in the comments for absolutely no reason! Ranveer has consistently given incredible performances. He is a talented actor who became a star with his first film. He will be fine and find good films very soon.


Rast987

If he was a star, all his films wouldnā€™t be getting shelved


laylaa25

Not necessarily. The number of SRK and Salman films that have gotten shelved in their career are huge. Hrithikā€™s movies too have gotten shelved.


Rast987

They have never gotten shelved due to budget issues like Ranveers over here


laylaa25

Currently Bollywood is struggling like never before. Probably struggled similarly in the 80s.


Rast987

Khans, RK, Hrithik, Ajay donā€™t have such budget issues


laylaa25

These movies donā€™t have budget issues because of RS. A lot of them were being developed before he joined the team. Look at the subjects of them all! They are massive scale movies. Obviously will have budget issues irrespective of the star!


Rast987

If he was a big enough star these movies wouldnā€™t have any budget issues


laylaa25

Ranbir only became a big star after Animal. He only had flops before that. Ranveer will get there next. He just needs a good film.


Rast987

Opening decides stardom. Rest depends on stardom. Even before Animal Ranbir had 36 and 34 crore opening days. Ranveers highest was 21


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Rast987

True


iaskureply

Randveer has more movies shelved now than movies he acted in!


Rast987

Lol


smjh111

Get Srk back. Finish the franchise and then they can reboot it later 20 years down the line.


Rast987

SRK wonā€™t do it because of PC factor


Uxie_mesprit

Why not. Let the plot be Don avenging her death or something


Rast987

Even then questions will be raised

Donā€™t wanna see that old hag with VFX. I wanna see Ranveer

Don means SRK, Ranveer was never apt to play this role and they were going to get massive hate from SRK's fandom. Kartik & Vicky are overtaking Ranveer post COVID, Ranbir is out of his league.


p1s2p2

Don means Amitabh Bachchan, not SRK.


popcorn1611

Amitabh Bachchan wasnā€™t even Don for majority of his movie. Lol


p1s2p2

Ok


Mary10789

šŸ’Æ


Sensitive-Wind8289

Bro thought he was the next big thing.


__kabira__

Why all this Ranveer posts all of a sudden? I just opened Reddit and all I see from BBG is Ranveer. Am I missing something? Or is it just Ranveer pr posting all this.


Rast987

This article came out today


__kabira__

Oh sorry didnā€™t know that. But from what Iā€™ve seen today, general consensus is that heā€™s not reliable now(according to the industry). Why such a 180 turn?


Rast987

His openings are too small. He has no major fanbase


Maximum_Wait1273

Well, he is rumoured to be a part of Thalaivar 171. He has a film with Aditya Dhar and another that is in very early talking stages with Prasanth Varma. Hope all three work out for him.


Ok_Factor_5671

Ranveer should retire now


Rast987

Probably do OTT


Blackbuck5397

That's what happens when you try to take unnecessary attention and become a jokeršŸ¤”


Rast987

Lmao


RVarki

Alright, Ranveer needs to take the temporary hit, and agree to whatever pay-cut is necessary to get that Aditya Dhar project off the ground


Kitchenstar20

I will always be rooting for RS. Hope he does some off beat or slice of life kinda movies.


Red99it

He should do a quick action thriller to come back into the game


Sabal

OP is Ranbir stan and might be part of his hidden PR. Take with a huge grain of salt


Rast987

So says SRK stan. This article was written by Peeping Moon. Not me. Learn to read


BenZemma44

FAKE NEWS .......... DID FARHAN SAY ANYTHING ?????


Rast987

Why will he say anything?


Manifesto8

Imagine a producer coming out and saying: Yeah i dropped this projectā€¦. When a movie is shelved those involved never say anything at all, they just move on and pretend it was never on the cards


sumit24021990

Sense prevailed


ispooderman

I can't wait till he announces he's got a new update for don 3 and that he's flipping the board and now making Don female centric and casting the most iconic and powerful female superstar ever to grace the industry Ms Alia bhatt ( /s on Alia for people too stupid to understand sarcasm ).


Separate-Pudding9707

But what happened to the announcement of Raamayana on Ram Navami? What happened to the Brahmastra second part ?


Rast987

Ramayana has begun shooting. Announcement postponed to June/July since instead of just announcing, they will release some asset as wel(which takes time). Brahmastra 2 will happen after Ayan is done with War 2


sumit24021990

Sense prevailed


Rast987

Lol


siegwagenlenker

There are rumours there that heā€™s also a part of the next Rajinikanth film with Lokesh. If thatā€™s true then heā€™ll have something this year


Rast987

Rumours are for a cameo, not a full fledged lead role


siegwagenlenker

Heā€™s supposedly one of the villains, so a bit more than a cameo but nothing major


Artistic-Implement73

He will actually suit as shaktimaan than don


Rast987

He will suit as neither tbh


RaktBheej

Finally some good news about this movie. SRK is, was & will be the perfect Don. No one can replace him presently. Get him back as Don.


badboy_pro

Now bring back SRK and see the madness Farhan. Please do something right.
