Mumbai, May 31

Amid the ongoing controversy surrounding his exit from 'Don 3', Bollywood superstar Ranveer Singh was seen jetting off to Budapest, Hungary, where he witnessed Arsenal's heartbreaking defeat in the UEFA Champions League final.

A longtime team Arsenal supporter, Ranveer attended the match at the iconic Puskas Arena and later shared an emotional note for the club on his social media account.

Despite the disappointing result, the actor expressed pride in the team's performance and seemed very hopeful and optimistic for the future.

Sharing his thoughts after the match, Ranveer wrote, "Proud of the boys. Fought like lions! Couldn't get any closer in a game of such fine margins. Congratulations to my Arsenal family on a historic season. And...the best is yet to come!"

The actor also gave fans a glimpse of his time in Budapest through a series of social media posts.

Earlier during the trip, Ranveer had met Arsenal and England midfielder Declan Rice and shared a picture from their interaction. Posting a glimpse from the meet on his social media account, he captioned it, "All about last night," while using the iconic song 'Tere Jaisa Yaar Kahan' from the film 'Yaarana' in the background.

Meanwhile, Ranveer has been in the headlines over reports concerning his alleged exit from the upcoming film 'Don 3'.

Recently, the FWICE reportedly issued a non-cooperation directive against the actor following claims of his last-minute withdrawal from the project.

The organisation is also said to have approached industry bodies, including the Indian Motion Picture Producers' Association (IMPPA) and the Producers Guild of India, seeking intervention in the matter.

The way he used "Tere Jaisa Yaar Kahan" for Declan Rice is so Indian and cute! 🇮🇳 It's refreshing to see global sports connections through our film culture. Hope Arsenal bounce back stronger!

I'm not a football fan but I respect Ranveer's dedication. He's always been energetic about everything he does. But this Don 3 thing is messy - why create problems when you're in such a good phase? Needs to sort his priorities.

"Best is yet to come" - that's the spirit! 🇮🇳👏 It's inspiring how he remains positive even after a loss. And he traveled all the way to Budapest just to support them? That's real fandom, not just social media posturing. Kudos!

While the football connection is sweet, I'm more worried about his career. Don 3 was a big deal and now this controversy? Hope he resolves it soon. Actors should respect their commitments - it's about integrity, not just stardom.

Ranveer is living every Arsenal fan's dream - going to finals, meeting players like Declan Rice. His energy is contagious even through a screen! Hope the management sorts out his professional issues soon though. All the best, champ!
