The announcement has generated massive buzz, as the actor revealed his association with Force 3 through a heartfelt post on social media. Taking to his Instagram story, Harshvardhan shared a photo of himself at the revered Trimbakeshwar Temple in Maharashtra, dressed in a traditional dhoti and performing prayers.

(No other details till i begin the shoot.)”The Force franchise, known for its high-octane action and emotional depth, first hit theatres in 2011 under the direction of Nishikant Kamat. The film, starring John Abraham and Genelia D’Souza, became a fan favourite for its gripping storyline and powerful action sequences. It was followed by Force 2 in 2016, directed by Abhinay Deo, with Sonakshi Sinha joining John in an espionage-driven narrative that expanded the series’ universe.

His recent hit Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat continues to perform well at the box office, and he also has Silaa, a fantasy romance action drama co-starring Sadia Khateeb and Karan Veer Mehra, in the pipeline. With Force 3 expected to begin filming in March 2026, fans can look forward to seeing Harshvardhan Rane bring his signature intensity to one of Bollywood’s most adrenaline-fueled franchises.
