Meanwhile, Farhan Akhtar’s acting career is not necessarily going great guns. His last few releases, Lucknow Central, Rock On 2 and Wazir didn’t win the derby at the turnstiles.
Gold, his next venture as an actor-producer, will take a while for release. So the actor is going back to his first love — direction. When he first directed Dil Chahta Hai, it got him all the accolades. He followed it up with Lakshya and Don series.
Don 2 was his last release as a director in 2011.
While producer Ritesh Sidhwani did mention that Don 3 was being scripted and was on the cards in a while, Farhan has now put his foot on the accelerator for it.
A trade source says, “Farhan is a restless soul. While he enjoys acting and did not have the pressures of direction, it has been over six years that he has made a film. He has now spoken to his team to get the project off the blocks very quickly. We are expecting an announcement any time soon.”
