EXCLUSIVE: It’s a toss-up between Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif for ‘Don 3’!

The makers of ‘Don 3’ are a little stuck. The story they have been working on might be locked but the script is being altered more than once. Currently, we hear from the production that the film won’t go on floors until next year because Farhan Akhtar, the director will be busy shooting ‘Toofan’ from mid-2019. Also, Ranveer Singh and Shah Rukh Khan who are rumoured to be up against each other, are unavailable together till 2020.

Meanwhile, we read reports about how Katrina Kaif is being considered for the third instalment of the hit ‘Don’ franchise. Let us give you a lowdown. As of now, no heroine or hero has signed on the dotted line for this action-thriller.

Yes, Katrina is definitely one of the leading contenders but joining her is also Deepika Padukone. Our source tells us, “Deepika is also at the top of her game, she is very good with action and has an amazing physique. Katrina also has similar qualities but Deepika is known to be a better performer. Here, it needs to be seen what Excel Entertainment decides because they have initiated conversations with the ‘Piku’ actress as well. Katrina was being spoken to since three years but the film went nowhere. Now they will have to decide who they want to go ahead with – Deepika or Katrina?”

Like always, it’s again a toss-up between these two leading heroines who anyway share a history of their own. Nevertheless, given that the heroine’s role is of primary importance and involves a lot of action sequences and stunts, both DP and KK suit the bill.
