Amid mounting speculation surrounding the casting turmoil of Don 3, actor Hrithik Roshan has issued a clarification, stating that he was never approached for the film at any stage. Addressing the rumours directly, Hrithik said, “What started off as just a rumour has now taken on an entire life of its own, and it's important to set the record straight. I would like to categorically clarify that I was never approached for Don 3 at any given time. Requesting media to steer clear of any such unverified reports. ”His statement comes in the wake of ongoing reports about behind-the-scenes developments involving the much-anticipated third instalment of the Don franchise.

The speculation began earlier this week, triggering reactions across social media and entertainment outlets. In a post shared on his Instagram Stories, Massey firmly denied being part of the project. “Ok. To put the rumours to rest. I never was a part of Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayan,” he wrote, reflecting on the coverage that suggested he had lost a role in the film. “The many media portals reporting about my supposed ‘replacement’ should’ve done the requisite background check. Disappointing. Nonetheless, wishing everyone a part of the movie all the very best. Love. ”The actor later deleted the post from his Instagram Story, though no explanation was given for its removal. The controversy stemmed from a report by Variety India mentioning that Raghav Juyal had been cast as Meghanad (also called Indrajit) — the eldest son of Ravana and a key warrior in the Ramayana narrative — for Ramayana: Part 2. The same report indicated that the role was once linked to Massey before the filmmakers made a different casting choice. The publication quoted a source saying, “The role was initially supposed to be played by Vikrant Massey, but things apparently didn't work out.

The petition alleges that the film’s title and promotional material are offensive and defamatory to the Brahmin community. In a statement shared publicly, Pandey asserted that Ghooskhor Pandat is a fictional cop drama and that the term “Pandat” refers only to a colloquial nickname of a fictional character, not to any caste, religion or community. “Our film is a fictional cop drama, and the term ‘Pandat’ is used simply as a colloquial name for a fictional character.
