Singham Again Movie Review and Release Live Updates
Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again, starring Ajay Devgn in the lead, has officially hit cinemas. With an ensemble cast that includes Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Tiger Shroff, Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, and Jackie Shroff, Shetty’s ambitious Cop Universe continues to expand in this fifth installment. Billed as an “Avengers-style” action saga, the film brings together characters from Shetty’s previous hits: Singham, Simmba, and Sooryavanshi. This highly anticipated crossover promises explosive action scenes and powerful character collaborations.
The trailer hints at a Ramayan-inspired narrative, where Kareena’s character is captured by the villain Danger Lanka, played by Arjun Kapoor. As the stakes rise, Singham (Ajay Devgn) leads his team on a mission to rescue her. Early audience reactions are praising Salman Khan’s cameo as Chulbul Pandey from Dabangg, with some saying he “steals the show.” Akshay Kumar’s reprisal as a top action star also resonates with audiences, reinforcing his reputation as the “king of action.”
From 2011’s Singham to a Multi-starrer Universe
Rohit Shetty’s journey with the Singham franchise began in 2011, with Ajay Devgn introducing audiences to the tough and upright Bajirao Singham. Its 2014 sequel, Singham Returns, laid further groundwork for Shetty’s vision. In 2018, Simmba saw Ajay Devgn’s Singham make a cameo appearance, introducing fans to the idea of a shared universe. Sooryavanshi (2021) brought Singham and Simmba together, establishing the “Cop Universe” concept. With Singham Again, Shetty merges multiple storylines, bringing in fan-favorite characters to work together, promising an action-packed cinematic experience.
Fans have been vocal on social media about their excitement to see these iconic stars on-screen together. The idea of bringing Salman Khan’s Chulbul Pandey into the mix adds a new layer of excitement, especially for audiences familiar with his role in the Dabangg series.
The Competition: Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3
In a direct clash with Singham Again is Kartik Aaryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, directed by Anees Bazmee.

With Vidya Balan and Rajpal Yadav reprising roles that brought a unique charm to the series, fans are eager to see how this supernatural thriller unfolds. Bazmee’s knack for blending humor with scares is expected to draw large audiences.
The competition between Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is more intense than ever.
