Singham story (no spoilers)
Singham follows Bajirao Singham, an honest small-town cop whose life is upended when he is transferred to a big city controlled by crime boss Jaikant Shikre. Singham had once humiliated Shikre, and now the two are on a collision course as Singham navigates a corrupt system while trying to uphold the law. The film is a Hindi remake of the Tamil hit Singam, blending action, drama and crime elements as Singham's principles are tested in a new and dangerous environment. With a runtime of 143 minutes, the story focuses on Singham's struggle against a powerful adversary and the personal stakes involved, including his relationship with Kavya Bhosle. The tone is gritty and intense, typical of Rohit Shetty's action-packed style, and the narrative explores themes of justice and revenge without giving away key plot turns.

Our verdict
Singham is a solid action entertainer powered by Ajay Devgn's commanding presence and Prakash Raj's formidable villainy. Rohit Shetty's direction keeps the 143-minute runtime engaging with well-choreographed action, though the story follows familiar cop-drama beats. It's a worthy start to the Singham franchise and a good pick for fans of the genre.
