Reasons Rohit Shetty’s cop universe has left an indelible mark

Diverse star cast

Singham franchise began with Ajay Devgn playing Bajirao Singham who went on to become an iconic role. The universe expanded with the addition of Ranveer Singh as Simmba and Akshay Kumar as Sooryavanshi. Well, seeing Ajay and Akshay as cops was refreshing as they have played similar roles before. However, Ranveer Singh turned out to be a surprise package as this unscrupulous cop, and his antics make him lovable. Apart from lead, it’s also the ensemble cast in franchises that have left a mark. Some of them are Siddharth Jadhav, Nikitin Dheer, Ashutosh Rana, Suresh Oberoi among others.

Epic Hero-Villain face-off

One theme that is common in the cop universe is how Good wins over evil. The films are not limited to just action but also convey a crucial message every time it ends. While Ajay, Ranveer, and Akshay as cops had strong roles, their face-off with antagonists and equally strong nemesis is what made the fight of every film memorable. Ajay Devgn had a face-off with Prakash Jha in Singham. It was continued by his battle Amol Gupte in the second part. It was followed by Ranveer Singh fighting against Sonu Sood in Simmba. After this, we saw Akshay Kumar fighting Jackie Shroff, Nikitin Dheer and Abhimanyu Singh. With Singham Again, Arjun Kapoor has entered as nemesis who will face the wrath of Bajirao Singham.

Banger Background score

The strong and impeccable BGM of Singham not only packed a solid punch but also elevated the action sequences and made them more powerful and enjoyable. Right from Ajay Devgn’s intro scene to the epic climax sequence where he takes on the lead antagonist, the intensity of BGM enhances the cinematic experience and takes the craze of the movie to a new level.
