Ranveer Singh Offers Rs 10 Crore Refund and Stake to Excel Entertainment After Don 3 Exit

Ranveer Singh exited the film Don 3, produced by Farhan Akhtar's Excel Entertainment, reportedly due to creative differences over the script. Excel Entertainment sought around Rs 40 crore in compensation for pre-production losses. To resolve the dispute, Ranveer has reportedly agreed to return his Rs 10 crore signing amount and offered a stake in his upcoming film, tentatively titled Pralaay. Neither party has officially confirmed these developments, and mediation efforts, including involvement by the Producers Guild of India, have been reported.
