'Singham Again' lights up Diwali with cracking cop universe masterpiece

Mumbai (The Uttam Hindu): "Singham Again" bursts onto the screen like a firecracker on Diwali night, driven by a powerhouse cast that delivers an exhilarating mix of thrills and humor. Directed by the dynamic Rohit Shetty, the film is more than just an action-packed ride; it’s a vibrant celebration of heroism, loyalty, and the timeless battle between good and evil, all infused with comedic moments and emotional depth.

At the heart of this adventure is DCP Bajirao Singham, played by Ajay Devgn, who embarks on a daring mission to rescue his wife, Avni (Kareena Kapoor Khan), from the clutches of the villainous Zubair Hafeez, portrayed captivatingly by Arjun Kapoor. The film cleverly reinterprets elements of the Ramayana, casting Singham as a modern-day Ram, Avni as Sita, and Zubair as Ravana. This innovative twist not only honors the epic tale but also delivers lessons on courage and sacrifice, all while maintaining a fun and engaging narrative.

The film features standout performances from a stellar ensemble cast, including Ranveer Singh as ACP Sangram "Simmba" Bhalerao, whose comic timing adds levity to the action. Deepika Padukone shines as SP Shakti Shetty, and Tiger Shroff wows with his martial arts skills as ACP Satya Bali. The climactic showdown, enhanced by impressive choreography and thematic depth, draws powerful parallels to the Ramayana. With sharp editing and a thrilling background score, "Singham Again" promises to be a joyous cinematic experience that families will cherish this Diwali season.
