powerhouse cast and delivers an action-packed Diwali entertainer. With Ajay Devgn leading as the stoic and fierce Bajirao Singham, the film amps up the stakes by shifting the action to the tense region of Jammu & Kashmir, adding new layers to the storyline and giving fans exactly what they expect from the franchise.
After his notable work in Maharashtra, Bajirao Singham is transferred to Jammu & Kashmir as the Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP). However, his presence in this conflict zone doesn’t go unnoticed, and he soon finds himself embroiled in a web of danger. When he comes face-to-face with terrorist Omar Hafiz (played by Jackie Shroff), he learns that Hafiz’s mission has been passed to a new, even deadlier villain: Zubair Hafiz, also known as Danger Lanka (portrayed by Arjun Kapoor), Omar’s ruthless grandson who controls a vast drug empire in Sri Lanka. Danger Lanka is not only vengeful but also personal in his vendetta, kidnapping Singham’s wife, Avni (Kareena Kapoor Khan), and demanding the release of his grandfather and the surrender of officers Sooryavanshi (Akshay Kumar) and Simmba (Ranveer Singh), whom he blames for his family’s demise.
The film unfolds with high-stakes drama and intense action as Singham and his team strategize to rescue Avni and dismantle the terror network led by Zubair. Rohit Shetty infuses this storyline with a Ramayana-inspired narrative, creating a battle of good versus evil that adds depth and intensity to the already engaging plot.
Each character in Singham Again gets a grand entry, emphasizing Shetty’s dedication to giving audiences a larger-than-life spectacle. Ajay Devgn shines as the steadfast Singham, bringing both strength and gravitas to the character. Arjun Kapoor’s portrayal of Danger Lanka is a surprising and strong highlight; his performance is nuanced, making the villain memorable and elevating Kapoor’s status in action cinema. Ranveer Singh’s playful charm as Simmba offers comic relief, especially in his scenes with Devgn and Akshay Kumar. Akshay, though in a cameo, delivers with his signature swag and screen presence, further energizing the ensemble cast. Tiger Shroff joins as Satya, impressing with his well-executed action sequences, while Deepika Padukone, as Shakti Shetty, brings elegance and charisma, standing out in a predominantly male cast. Supporting actors like Ravi Kishan, Shweta Tiwari, and Dayanand Shetty add value with their roles, making the cast well-rounded and effective.
The film’s action sequences are among its biggest draws, with explosive stunts, chase scenes, and high-intensity combat that keep audiences on the edge of their seats. The background score, a crucial part of Shetty’s signature style, complements the action, elevating moments and bringing a sense of grandeur that adds to the cinematic experience.
Singham Again proves to be a bona fide blockbuster that upholds the legacy of Rohit Shetty’s cop universe. With its engaging storyline, stellar cast, thrilling action, and captivating music, the film delivers exactly what fans expect. While it doesn’t break much new ground, it’s a crowd-pleaser that solidifies Shetty and Devgn’s winning combination in the genre. For action enthusiasts and fans of the franchise, Singham Again is a must-watch on the big screen, making it an ideal Diwali release. With a 3.5 out of 5 rating, the film promises a satisfying, larger-than-life experience that stays true to the spirit of Shetty’s blockbuster cinema.
