Helmed by Rohit Shetty ‘Singham Again’ also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Deepika Padukone, Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, and Ranveer Singh in the lead roles. ‘Singham Again’ is the third instalment of the super-hit franchise and the film is all set to hit theatres on the occasion of Independence Day 2024.
‘Singham’ was released in 2011, starring Kajal Aggarwal and Prakash Raj in lead roles, followed by ‘Singham Returns’ in 2014. Both projects were declared box office hits.
In an interview with ANI, Shetty said, “I did ‘Simmba’, ‘Sooryavanshi’ and then the pandemic came for two years because ‘Sooryavanshi”s end is linked to ‘Singham’, we had to wait for almost three years to start shooting for the film.”
Rohit Shetty who enjoys shooting in Hyderabad and Goa has finished some of the shooting for ‘Singham Again’ at the Ramoji studio in Hyderabad “It’s a huge studio and the kind of work I do…car chases, action and all that…so for that, I need that kind of place. There are not many restrictions and I love that place. You stay there in the studio and you shoot there..it’s kind of boarding school… there is discipline..within two minutes you are on a set.”
Talking about the role of Ajay Devgn and whether he will reprise the character of Inspector Bajirao Singham, Shetty said, “He is upgraded now, although he is playing an officer but on a bigger level. He has a different mission altogether from the government.”
“Then there is Ranveer and Deepika,” he said
“They all come from a different region. It’s not like in one police station. The film travels. It travels from Mumbai to South till Rameswaram and forward from that,” reveals Shetty.
