Farhan Akhtar Makes FIRST Public Appearance In Mumbai, Avoids Paparazzi Amid Don 3 Controversy With Ranveer Singh - VIDEO

Actor-filmmaker Farhan Akhtar made his first public appearance amid the ongoing controversy surrounding Don 3 with Ranveer Singh. This comes a day after Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) issued an indefinite non-cooperation directive against Ranveer following Farhan's complaint about the actor's exit from Don 3 just days before the shoot was set to begin, reportedly causing major financial losses.

Ranveer Singh Offers Prayers At Chamundeshwari Temple

Interestingly, Ranveer was also spotted in Mumbai on Tuesday morning after the controversy erupted. The actor avoided posing for the paparazzi and kept his face covered with a mask during his airport appearance, which further fueled online discussions surrounding Don 3.

He visited the famous Chamundeshwari Temple in Karnataka to offer prayers. Videos from the temple visit surfaced online, showing the actor sitting on the ground during prayers and later posing with temple priests for photographs. Dressed in traditional attire, Ranveer appeared calm and composed during the spiritual visit.

Despite the ongoing controversy, Ranveer is currently enjoying strong box office success with his blockbuster Dhurandhar franchise, directed by Aditya Dhar.
