Farhan Akhtar’s sequel to Don was expected to start early next year but it seems like the shooting of the film will not start soon enough as the lead actors and the director of the original movie are busy with other ventures.

When we quizzed Priyanka Chopra about the development on the sequel, she answers, “I think the sequel is a little far now. I don’t think it will start soon. Everyone involved in the project is pretty busy now I think with other work.”

But the project seems more far than it actually is, as our insiders inform, “Farhan is busy with Luck By Chance in which he is acting and also with his next directorial film Voice From The Sky. So, as of now Don 2 is not starting.”

The insider adds,  “Shah Rukh too is very tied up now. He has to look after the promotions of his own production Billoo Barber, then he will do Karan Johar’s My Name is Khan and then move over to his another production Happy New Year which Farah Khan will direct. He is also busy with his animation film Ravan. He does not have time for Don 2 at the moment but yes as everyone knows Shah Rukh is ready to act in the sequel.”

We also hear that Priyanka, who played the character of Roma in Don, is also tied up and cannot allot dates for the sequel. Piggy Chops is doing three films — Kurbani, Vishal Bhardwaj’s Kameenay that has Shahid Kapur in the lead and Ashutosh Gowariker’s What’s your Raashee? with Harman Baweja.
