Vikrant Massey Villain In Don 3

‘Farhan
wanted
someone
who
was
young
unpredictable
and
compatible
on
screen
with
Ranveer
Singh.’

Vikrant
Massey,
who
shocked
everyone
by
recently
announcing
his
temporary
retirement,
will
be
seen
as
the
villain
in
Farhan
Akhtar’s
eagerly
awaited

Don
3.

A
source
very
close
to
the
development
confirmed
this
interesting
casting
to

Subhash
K
Jha.

“Farhan
wanted
someone
who
was
young
unpredictable
and
compatible
on
screen
with
Ranveer
Singh.”

“Contrary
to
belief,
Vikrant
had
no
qualms
playing
the
antagonist,
especially
since
the
part
is
written
most
interestingly,
and
is
as
important
as
the
protagonist’s
character.”

In
2023
we
saw
Vikrant
sweep
across
the
nation’s
collective
conscience
in

12th
Fail
with
a
yearning
performance
that
yelled
at
educational
elitism.

In
2024
Vikrant
sent
a
chill
up
the
nation’s
collective
spine
playing
a
gruesome
unapologetic
mass
killer
in

Sector
36
and
a
Hindi
channel
journalist
Samar
Kumar
who
is
pushed
around
by
his
bosses
at
the
television
broadcast
station
on
account
of
his
vernacular
identity
in

Sabarmati
Report.

Vikrant
feels
the
change
in
his
career
profile.

“I
can
feel
the
change.
I
see
the
change.

“With
regards
to
people,
with
regards
to
the
way
my
fraternity
has
responded
towards
me.

“Yeah,
so
it
feels
great.
I’m
really
happy.

“There
are
much
better
roles
coming
in.

“Much
more
responsibility
as
well.

“So
I’m
really
looking
forward
to
taking
it
on.
And
probably
moving
forward
with
far
more
responsibility
and
caution.”
