MUMBAI – Bollywood’s producer Ritesh Sidhwani has announced to soon start work on the third installment of Shahrukh Khan’s super-hit thriller series Don franchise.
Sidhwani, who has produced the previous versions, confirmed that his team was just waiting for the right script.
“I am eagerly awaiting but I think we need to find the right script. Are we going to make it? The answer is yes. I don’t exactly know the time”, Ritesh said in a statement on Friday.
