Kangana Ranaut Backs Ranveer Singh Amid Don 3 Controversy: “Successful People Always Have Enemies”

Actor and politician Kangana Ranaut has come out in support of Ranveer Singh amid the ongoing controversy surrounding his reported exit from Don 3 and the subsequent non-cooperation directive issued by the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE). Speaking at the trailer launch of her upcoming film Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, Kangana reflected on the challenges that often accompany success, stating that people who achieve great heights inevitably attract criticism and opposition.

Addressing the media, Kangana said, “It's impossible not to make enemies when you are successful. Today, Ranveer Singh should think about what he has achieved in his career. In life, when a person moves forward, they will face numerous obstacles. You cannot always have a smooth ride. I have faced the same thing, but I am still doing fine. It doesn't matter. It will be fine eventually.” Her remarks come as debates continue across the film industry and social media regarding the actor’s alleged departure from the highly anticipated project.

The controversy intensified after FWICE reportedly issued a non-cooperation directive against Ranveer Singh, alleging that the actor failed to respond to repeated requests to appear before the federation regarding the matter. The move followed a complaint from filmmaker Farhan Akhtar, who reportedly raised concerns about financial losses linked to the actor’s exit from Don 3. According to reports, the production incurred substantial pre-production expenses before the development came to light.

Interestingly, the dispute arrives at a time when Ranveer Singh is enjoying tremendous professional success, with his Dhurandhar franchise emerging as a major box-office force. Meanwhile, Kangana is gearing up for the release of Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata on June 12, 2026. Her support for Ranveer has added a new dimension to the ongoing discussion, with many viewing her comments as a reminder of the pressures and scrutiny that often accompany stardom.
