Mumbai, Aug 10 (PTI) As someone who grew up “watching and worshipping” Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan on screen, actor Ranveer Singh on Thursday said he hopes to make the two Hindi cinema superstars proud as he takes on the mantle of the new Don.
In an Instagram post, Ranveer said he understood the responsibility that came with the iconic character first played by Bachchan in 1978’s “Don”, a role that Farhan Akhtar reimagined with Shah Rukh in his 2006 and 2011 film series.
Farhan and Ritesh Sidhwani’s banner Excel Entertainment bought the rights of the Bachchan-starrer, which was directed by Chandra Barot. Veteran writers Javed Akhtar, who is Farhan’s father, and Salim Khan created the character of Don.
