&nbsp;FWICE has made it clear that Ranveer Singh is not banned from the film industry. Many reports said he was banned after leaving Don 3. FWICE now says those reports are wrong. The group has only sent a non-cooperation notice to its members. This is not the same as a full ban. Members can still choose to work with the actor if they want.The issue started when Ranveer left Don 3 just three weeks before the shoot. Farhan Akhtar and Excel Entertainment had already spent around 45 crore on pre-production work. The producers complained to FWICE. FWICE then sent three notices and three reminders to Ranveer. His team did not reply. This led to talk of a ban. FWICE advisor Ashoke Pandit later said the notice is only advice, not a rule.A ban means no one in the industry can work with an actor. A non-cooperation notice is only a suggestion. Each worker can decide on their own. Ranveer’s team said this kind of money issue should be settled between the actor and producer, not through FWICE. The actor has faced other issues this year too. He had to say sorry after a problem linked to Kantara.For now, Don 3 makers are looking for a new actor. Ranveer is busy with other films like Pralay and Aditya Dhar’s next project. FWICE says it wants all sides to talk and solve the issue. The notice does not stop Ranveer from signing new movies. Trade people feel the problem may end soon if both sides meet.
