Actor Ranveer Singh and filmmaker Farhan Akhtar have found themselves at odds after Ranveer’s sudden exit from Don 3, a move that is said to have cost the project ₹40 crore.
Farhan has finally broken his silence on the fallout for the first time, revealing what he learnt from the “messy” chapter of his career.
“What I've learned is to expect the unexpected. Nothing can be taken for granted until you actually have it on film. That’s really what it is,” Farhan said.
Farhan went on to recall the many pleasant experiences he has had throughout his career, adding that he is unfazed by encountering an occasional hurdle along the way.
“I also feel that from the time that I began – from that moment when Aamir Khan, Akshaye Khanna, Preity Zinta, Dimple Kapadia, Saif Ali Khan, and Ritesh Sidhwani, as my partner, till they came on and said yes, ‘let’s make this film’ – from that moment on I've had the most incredible ride. It has just been (about) working with the people I want to work with, whether directing them or acting in films that I want to act in with directors. And it has been amazing. You realise that at some point, there will be a period that’s going to be a little bit more challenging. You have had it good, so it’s okay… Just take it in your stride.”
