Ranveer Singh Asks IMPPA to Stay Out of 'Don 3' Dispute over Reported Rs 45 Crore Compensation Claim

Ranveer Singh’s lawyers say there was only an MoU and warn that any IMPPA resolution could trigger legal action in the Don 3 dispute.

  • Actor Ranveer Singh's legal team submitted a formal defence against Excel Entertainment's ₹45 crore compensation claim over Don, warning the Indian Motion Picture Producers Association against intervening in the dispute.
  • Producers Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani approached industry organizations including the Producers Guild and Federation of Western India Cine Employees after Ranveer left the project, seeking damages through multiple bodies.
  • Ranveer's legal team argued no formal agreement existed between him and Excel Entertainment, asserting only a Memorandum of Understanding was signed, and that the Indian Motion Picture Producers Association lacks jurisdiction over the matter.
  • Following an August 18 meeting, the actor's team sent a second letter stating that if the Indian Motion Picture Producers Association passes any resolution, Ranveer will pursue legal action against the body.
  • The Don dispute remains unresolved while Ranveer continues work on other projects, including director The Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar: The Revenge and Jai Mehta's Pralay, as the actor's legal team prepares to challenge any industry body intervention.
