Don 3 Row: FWICE Withdraws Non-Cooperation Directive Against Ranveer Singh Following Legal Notice, Says ‘No One Has Won Or Lost’
Actor Ranveer Singh received major relief in the ongoing Don 3 controversy, with the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) officially withdrawing its non-cooperation directive against him. The decision was announced on Wednesday (June 3) after discussions involving several key industry bodies, including the Indian Motion Picture Producers’ Association (IMPPA), the Producers Guild of India (PGI) and the Cine & TV Artistes’ Association (CINTAA).
The move comes days after FWICE issued the directive over Ranveer’s reported exit from Farhan Akhtar’s much-awaited film Don 3. The matter later escalated when the actor sent a legal notice to the organisation.
Speaking to reporters, FWICE president BN Tiwari confirmed that the directive had been revoked with immediate effect.
“We are taking back our non cooperative directive from immediate effect after a request by IMPAA, the producers’ guild and CINTAA. We have been told that we should all sit together with the producers’ body and take an appropriate decision where neither the producers and directors nor the actor face any issues,” FWICE president BN Tiwari told reporters in Mumbai, according to PTI.
Tiwari also clarified that the organisation does not view the development as a victory or defeat for either side. “No one has won or lost in this matter. Our legal department will respond to his legal notice,” he added.
The controversy began on May 25 when FWICE announced a non-cooperation directive against Ranveer following a complaint filed by Farhan and his producing partner Ritesh Sidhwani with the Indian Film and Television Directors’ Association (IFTDA).
The matter was subsequently referred to FWICE for intervention.
According to reports, Don 3 has been in development for nearly three years and is yet to go on floors. The producers have reportedly claimed that more than Rs 45 crore has already been invested in the film’s pre-production process.
Amid the growing dispute, Ranveer Singh chose not to comment publicly on the issue. However, his spokesperson issued a statement emphasizing the actor’s respect for everyone associated with the project and the film industry.
“Throughout the recent developments surrounding ‘Don 3’, he has consciously chosen to maintain silence, believing that professional discussions and personal equations are best handled with dignity, maturity and mutual respect,” the statement said.
The spokesperson also stated that Singh continues to hold “deep respect and goodwill” for all those connected to the film and the industry.

Hrithik Roshan shares Saba Azad’s special bond with his sons in a romantic birthday post

Actor Hrithik Roshan penned a heartfelt and romantic birthday wish for his girlfriend, actress Saba Azad, saying that even the longest journeys become special adventures when he is with her.
Taking to Instagram, the ‘War’ actor shared a beautiful note in which he compared travelling with Saba to choosing a flight with several stopovers over a direct journey. He said he would happily pick the longer route every time if it meant having her by his side. The actor explained that every ordinary moment, wait and unexpected turn becomes an adventure in Saba’s company.
Sharing their romantic photos, the ‘Krrish’ actor wrote, “Someone asked me about you. I said I don’t wanna talk about you cause it’s too precious. She insisted and I said this .. “Well, how about this? Say if there were 2 options for flights from mumbai to a far off destination, one was a direct flight. Efficient and easy!”
“And another one that went via 8 random cities with hours of transit time each stop with possibilities of missing connecting flights. If it was with her…” I said, “I’d pick the 2nd option… deliberately… every single time. Cause with you Sa, every mundane, every wait, every deviation from the normal inevitability turns into a dance of adventures. Let’s adventure on my birthday girl. Here’s to a lifetime of long layovers together. I love you Happy Birthday,” he added.
The carousel of photographs also featured candid pictures of Saba along with some cherished moments shared with Hrithik. In one of the pictures, the couple was seen enjoying ice creams together. The final photograph showed Saba striking a happy pose with Hrithik’s sons, Hrehaan and Hridhaan.
Hrithik Roshan and Saba Azad reportedly began dating in late 2021 or early 2022 after connecting on social media. Their interaction began when Hrithik praised one of Saba’s videos on X (formerly Twitter), following which the two exchanged direct messages and later met through a mutual friend.
The couple made their first public appearance together in May 2022 when they arrived hand-in-hand at filmmaker Karan Johar’s 50th birthday celebration. They marked five years of togetherness in October 2026.

Tiger Shroff firing case: 12th accused sent to police custody till Nov 6

A Mumbai court on Saturday sent Amar, the 12th accused arrested from Haryana’s Sonipat in connection with the firing incident on Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff, to police custody till November 6.
On Thursday, a special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) court had sent 11 other accused arrested in connection with the firing on Shroff’s car to police custody till November 6.
The latest accused was arrested from Rohna village in Sonipat.
Earlier in the day, the Mumbai Police had produced Amar before a court, which sent him to police custody until November 6.
According to officials, Amar is accused of having transferred money, allegedly used in the commission of the crime, online. The funds were reportedly used for various expenses, including the purchase of a motorcycle and booking hotel rooms linked to the case.
According to the preliminary investigation, Amar is a friend and neighbour of Kunal, who was arrested earlier in the case. Police investigations have revealed that Kunal allegedly transferred Rs 40,000 to Amar’s bank account.
Amar subsequently transferred Rs 12,000 to Radha’s bank account, another accused arrested earlier, allegedly on Kunal’s instructions.
The Mumbai Police are investigating these financial transactions to establish the purpose of the transfers and determine the connections between the accused. The money trail is being examined as part of the wider investigation into the firing incident.
Amar, who studied up to Class 10, works at a supplements shop. His parents reportedly earn their livelihood through daily-wage labour.
Meanwhile, Amar’s family has claimed that he is innocent and alleged that he has been falsely implicated in the case.
With nine of the 12 arrested accused reportedly belonging to Sonipat, the district has emerged as a key focus of the Mumbai Police investigation.
The police are examining the financial dealings and personal connections among the accused to establish the sequence of events and identify the roles played by individual suspects.
