Priyanka Chopra hints at possible future involvement in Don 3 and Krrish 4 ahead of her return to Bollywood with Varanasi, generating buzz among fans of both franchises.
Priyanka Chopra, one of Bollywood’s most globally recognised stars, has teased possible developments on two of India’s biggest film franchises, Don 3 and Krrish 4, as she prepares for her return to Indian cinema with the upcoming Varanasi. The actor’s remarks have sparked excitement among fans eager for updates on long-rumoured sequels to the action-packed Don series and the superhero-drama Krrish.
Open to revisiting major franchises
In a recent interaction with Screenrant ahead of
_Varanasi_’s release, Chopra acknowledged her connection with both the Don and Krrish universes. While she did not confirm official production details, the actor said she would be “open to revisiting characters and worlds that have a strong storytelling potential,” triggering speculation about potential entries in the much-anticipated Don and
_Krrish_ series.
during the interview, when asked about the franchises, Priyanka quipped, “I don’t know if I can talk about either of them at all.” Her response made co-star Mahesh Babu say, “Then there’s something happening.”
Priyanka then went on to add, “Exciting, exciting times ahead, and, yes, this (Varanasi) is the first one that I’m doing after, like, almost six years in India, and just coming back. My favourite part, was getting to dance again, haven’t done that in any of my Hollywood productions. I was really excited to be able to do that.”
The Don franchise, originally rebooted with Shah Rukh Khan in the lead, has been one of Bollywood’s most successful action properties, while the Krrish films have defined the superhero genre in Hindi cinema. Fans have been particularly vocal online about the prospect of Chopra being involved in future installments given her versatile screen presence and international appeal.
Return with Varanasi
Chopra’s comments come as she gears up for her role in Varanasi, marking a return to Indian films after a series of international projects. The film, set against the backdrop of one of India’s most spiritually significant cities, is expected to showcase Chopra in a narrative that blends emotional depth with cultural resonance.
She spoke about the difference in working in Bollywood and Hollywood. “Um, yes, I think that the
culture of filmmaking is very different in Hollywood versus how we work in India, and you have to pivot your brain. So I can divide my brain into two. I don’t think there is a world in which you bring lessons from there, here, or vice versa. I think you have to, like, immerse yourself into…”
She added, “And I believe, anyway, an actor’s journey is through a director’s vision, whether it was Ilya in heads of state or any other work that I’ve done abroad, all filmmakers in Hindi cinema or television cinema. I think you just have to go into every film set with, you know, the originality of whatever you’re going to receive from that set. But, I’m so happy to be coming back and, you know, making this movie in India, because if there was any other, any way to come back into Indian cinema, it was this.”
While
concrete announcements on _Don 3_ and Krrish 4 are yet to be made by studios, Chopra’s openness to continuing with established franchises has fuelled renewed interest among audiences and trade observers alike. Her dual footprint in both Bollywood and Hollywood continues to position her as a key figure capable of bridging cinematic worlds.
