Following the lack of a resolution, Farhan Akhtar reportedly approached FWICE last month. The trade body is said to have sent three notices to Ranveer Singh. When no meeting could take place, FWICE reportedly issued a non-cooperation directive against the actor, restricting members associated with nearly 40 crafts from working with him until the matter is addressed.

Following this, which many had perceived as a “shadow ban”, Ranveer Singh issued a statement stating that he chose to remain silent on the matter and wished the best for the franchise.  The issue has continued to spark conversations within the film industry, with several celebrities weighing in. Earlier, singer Mika Singh had said that he would speak to FWICE regarding the matter.

Film body CINTAA has also reportedly expressed disappointment over not being informed directly about the situation despite the growing attention around the issue.

Amid the back and forth, Salman Khan’s reported intervention appears to have brought a fresh possibility of dialogue, with all eyes now on whether Ranveer Singh and Farhan Akhtar can arrive at a mutual resolution.
