The baton seems to have been passed on to Ranveer Singh when Kapoor's filming was completed. The majority of Singh's parts for the Ajay Devgn-led police drama are reportedly completed. By month's end, the actor is supposed to finish his parts.

According to a report in the popular news portal, a source revealed, “There's some minor patchwork shooting remaining, which will be completed at Film City within the next two weeks.”

This conclusion leaves Singh with a crucial decision – what's next? Industry insiders hint at three potential projects on his slate: Aditya Dhar's gangster drama Dhurandhar, Prasanth Varma's upcoming film, and the highly anticipated Don 3 alongside Farhan Akhtar.

The source further stated, “Singh is expected to commence shooting for Aditya's film in June. He's also been in talks with Prasanth Varma, known for HanuMan, regarding their next project, tentatively titled Rakshas.”

Rakshas is said to be a mythological film set in the pre-Independence era, with Singh portraying a morally ambiguous character. This unique role has reportedly piqued his interest. By the end of this month, Singh is likely to finalize the details of his next project. The current plan involves wrapping up Dhurandhar in a continuous shoot by July-end, followed by a break in August before diving into Varma's film in September.

Regarding Dhar’s project, a source told a popular entertainment portal anonymously a month ago, “Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar are very keen to make their first collaboration very special. They want to mount the film like the biggest action thriller set against the backdrop of politics and gang wars. The vision to make this requires a big budget and they are not able to align their vision with their studio partner.”

The source went on to say that Aditya Dhar is currently taking a leave of absence to rewrite the script and condense some of the action sequences to fit it under a specific budget structure.

“The market is not lucrative as the digital streaming market has come down in the last 2 years. With films not fetching the requisite value of digital rights, the studios have asked a lot of directors to rework their budgets. Aditya Dhar is now working to get budgets in place,” the source said.
