Singham
Storyline
Following charges of corruption, Colva’s (Goa) Police Inspector Rakesh Kadam kills himself, leaving a devastated wife, Megha, and son, Nitin. She takes it upon herself to canvas support that her husband was framed by a gangster, Jaykant Shikre, and vainly insists on a CBI Inquiry. When the High Court requires Jaykant, on unrelated charges, to present himself at Shivgad Police Station, which is located at the borders of Maharashtra and Karnataka, he refuses to do so, and the local Inspector Bajirao Singham, who has recently fallen in love with stunning Kavya Bhosle, summons him.
An enraged Jaikant does appear along with an army of goons, but is no match for Bajirao, who has support from the entire community. Humbled and humiliated, Jaykant returns to Goa, and ensures Bajirao gets transferred there. It is here he not only plans to use an army of goons, his control and influence over politicians and senior police officers to plan the ultimate vengeance with impunity but also contest and win the local elections.

About Singham Movie
- Singham serves as the first installment of Rohit Shetty’s Cop Universe.
- After the success of the Tamil film Singam, directed by Hari in 2010, the film’s remake rights were sold by the producers for Hindi and Kannada versions.
- The co-producers of the Tamil version, Reliance Big Pictures purchased the Hindi remake rights and announced in November 2010 that the version would feature Rohit Shetty as director and Ajay Devgn in the lead role.
- Prakash Raj was signed on to reprise his role as the antagonist from the original, whilst reports emerged that Asin and Anushka Shetty were being considered for the female lead role.
- In mid-February 2011, Kajal Aggarwal, an actress who predominantly features in South Indian films was signed in as the female lead.
- Singham went on floors in November 2010, with its scheduled cast.
- The first schedule began in early March 2011 with action sequences shot in Goa featuring technicians from South India.
- A scene with Prakash Raj and Ajay Devgn was shot in Goregaon in Mumbai with around 500 junior artists as villagers. Another scene was shot at Vagator in Goa for which 100 police jeeps were called.
- The shooting was stalled by the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) members who demanded ₹45 lakh to be paid to the workers when it was being shot in Film City in Mumbai.
- Singham had been removed from cinemas in Karnataka while some cinemas had canceled the shows following pressure from various groups protesting against derogatory statements against the Kannadigas. There was a demand to remove such scenes from the film and the filmmakers contemplated on the next course of action.
- Singham commenced in Karnataka after the removal of some “objectionable” dialogues, a day after disruptions in its screening.
- The music video for the 2020 Black Eyed Peas song “Action” pays tribute to Indian film action scenes, including Singham.
- An animated series based on Singham premiered on Discovery Kids (India) in April 2018.
- Singham Returns, a sequel to Singham directed by Shetty and produced by Ajay Devgn Films, was released in 2014. The plot is loosely based on the 1993 Malayalam film Ekalavyan.
- Simmba, a spin-off to Singham directed by Shetty and starring Ranveer Singh, was released in 2018. Devgn reprises his role in a special appearance. Another sequence or spin-off, Sooryavanshi, starring Akshay Kumar as another DCP named Veer Sooryavanshi who join hands with Simmba and Singham to stop a terrorist attack on Mumbai is directed again by Shetty.
