The Producers Guild of India has expressed serious concerns regarding the trend of talent withdrawing from projects at the last minute, specifically citing Ranveer Singh's abrupt exit from Don 3 and Akshaye Khanna's departure from Drishyam 3. The guild stated that such actions disrupt the content development process and lead to substantial financial losses for producers. In response to Singh's withdrawal, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) issued a non-cooperation directive, which means its members will refrain from working with him until the issue is resolved. Singh's exit reportedly occurred just weeks before filming was set to begin, prompting a complaint from filmmaker Farhan Akhtar. The FWICE clarified that their directive is not a ban but a temporary measure aimed at encouraging accountability. Additionally, Khanna's exit from Drishyam 3 was linked to disagreements over his remuneration, as he sought ₹21 crore following his recent successes. The Producers Guild emphasized the importance of professionalism and mutual respect in the industry, urging all parties to resolve disputes amicably.
