Rohit Shetty has become a brand of his own in Indian Cinema with his high flying cars, breathtaking stunts and comic capers. The director has made a big blockbuster combo with Ajay Devgn and their Singham has been one of the biggest blockbuster Cop movies ever. Rohit Shetty started building a cop film universe with Singham Returns, Simmba and Sooryavanshi. Adding two more characters to his ambitious universe, he made Singham Again, third installment in Singham series. The movie released on 1st November for Diwali weekend. Let's discuss about the film in detail. 

Plot: 
Bhajirao Singham(Ajay Devgn) catches a terrorist Omar Shariff(Jackie Shroff) in Kashmir and minister orders him to start Shiva Squad that eliminates such threats. After two years, Avni Bhajirao Singham(Kareena Kapoor) plans Ramayan, a project of Ramleela in new style and imagination. Omar's grandson Zubair(Arjun Kapoor) also known as "Danger Lanka" kidnaps Avni during the nine-day Ramleela festival. How Singham becomes Ram to bring back his Seetha aka Avni forms the rest of the story. 
 


Analysis :

Rohit Shetty started believing in his big stunts and stylish, elaborated action sequences more than story and screenplay. We could see that in Sooryavanshi and his next film, Cirkus, proved that he is losing his touch in comedy too. This mega action spectacle too falls short by miles from his imagination. 

The forceful integration of Ramayan in every scene and giving hero, God level stature did not work out in this movie. The masala needed more emotional connect than just someone kidnapping a woman and her husband becoming Ram. Characters needed to be etched out well. 

It has been rather made as a matter of fact that Rohit knows people would come to see various stars coming together and that is about it. Deepika Padukone as Shakti Shetty and Tiger Shroff as Satya did not evoke as much interest as OG three, Ajay as Singham, Ranveer Singh as Simba and Akshay Kumar as Sooryavanshi could. 

In fact, Ranveer as Simba could bring some life to proceedings in the second hour. When you feel Arjun Kapoor's Danger Lanka introduction is the best among such big stars ensemble film, then you can understand how unimaginative the movie is. You don't have to anticipate what's going to happen or how. You don't have to enjoy performances or stunts. 

All you can do is just see great production quality with tacky VFX, patchy stunt choreography, pointless direction and forced amalgamation of Ram Katha with Singham. It almost feels like a good idea has been fed to a group of people who did not understand the assignment one bit. 

All in all, Rohit Shetty wasted resources and an exciting ensemble cast with his lack of imagination and originality. He couldn't really get anything right as everything feels superficial and unrelentingly bad. 


TeluguOne Perspective :

A forgettable film that even wastes cameos.
