Farhan Akhtar’s Don (2006) was a chic and enjoyable remake of Chandra Barot’s Don (1978). The original film had Amitabh Bachchan, Zeenat Aman, and Pran in lead roles, whereas the remake of the film had Priyanka Chopra, Shah Rukh Khan, Boman Irani, and Arjun Rampal in pivotal roles. The plot of the remake is very similar to the original film. However, Farhan and his father Javed Akhtar made some tweaks to the script of the original and Farhan's version definitely took the audience by surprise. The film was successful at the box-office which prompted the makers to go for a sequel, Don 2, in the year 2011. Priyanka Chopra's performance in both movies was also raised by critics and fans. Take a look at the songs that were picturised on Priyanka.
