Though rumors suggested a ₹10cr repayment and stake in a new project to settle the dispute, the production house denied these claims, stating no final resolution has been made.
Reports emerged that the production house sought compensation (approx. ₹40 crore) due to significant pre-production costs incurred before Singh’s exit from Don 3.
Although some reports claimed a resolution involved returning the signing amount and providing a stake in his next project, Pralay, Excel clarified that these deals were not finalized.
The disagreement continues amid discussions, with the Producers Guild of India earlier involved in mediation.
As of late April 2026, the situation remains a stalemate, with confusion surrounding the financial, or rather fiscal or monetary, terms of a potential resolution.
