The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) announced a non-cooperation directive against actor Ranveer Singh. This decision follows his sudden exit from Farhan Akhtar’s anticipated film, Don 3. The complaint brought to the federation over five months ago, when Farhan Akhtar officially approached them about the actor’s withdrawal from the project.

At a press conference today, FWICE Chief Advisor and Indian Film and Television Directors’ Association President Ashok Pandit explained how the federation arrived at this decision.
Pandit mentioned that the issue started on April 11, when Farhan Akhtar filed a complaint with FWICE against Ranveer Singh. “The issue began on 11th April when Farhan Akhtar filed a complaint with FWICE. As the head of the association, I received it. In his complaint, he said that he wanted to meet us and register a complaint against actor Ranveer Singh,” Ashok Pandit said.

Pandit shared that the complaint mentioned that Ranveer Singh exit Don 3 just three weeks before the shooting set to begin, causing major disruption to the project.
As part of their standard process, FWICE invited producers Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani to discuss their case. Sidhwani attended the meeting in person, while Farhan joined virtually from London.
“For nearly two hours, they explained their entire complaint and narrated the sequence of events that led them to take this step. They shared many details with us. We listened to them carefully,” Pandit said.
