One of the accusations levelled by Ranveer against Don 3's makers has been that when his films weren't working, they kept dillydallying the shoot. And allegedly, they approached Hrithik Roshan behind Ranveer's back, to play the main role instead. It was only after Dhurandhar's success, that they suddenly wanted Ranveer again, mention reports.
However, when HT City reaches out to a source close to Hrithik, they completely deny it, “It is not true, Hrithik was not approached to star in Don 3 after Ranveer came on board.”
