Filmmaker Rohit Shetty has treated fans to a behind-the-scenes video from the Kashmir leg of the filming for Singham Again, starring Ajay Devgn. This captivating clip showcases the film’s stunning snowy backdrop, highlighting the picturesque Lal Bazaar, Dal Lake, and the bustling streets of Kashmir. However, the true stars of the video are Ajay Devgn and Jackie Shroff, along with Shetty himself, engaging with the vibrant local scene.
In the video, fans can be seen showering love on the actors, with Devgn, in his iconic Bajirao Singham attire, stealing the spotlight. The footage captures moments of Devgn during the shoot, Shetty interacting with police officers, meeting children, and signing autographs. Shetty’s heartfelt caption expresses his gratitude to the people of Kashmir and Prime Minister Modi, thanking them for the “tremendous love.”
Shetty also underscores the positive transformations in Kashmir following the abrogation of Article 370. A text overlay on the video reads: “We always had a paradise in our motherland called Kashmir, but once there was terrorism, unrest, curfews, no social life. And then Article 370 got abolished. Five years later, we landed up filming Singham Again. And now, the New Kashmir. Happiness. Young energy. Tourism. Peace. Love. Naye Bharat ka naya Kashmir (New India’s new Kashmir).”
Singham Again marks the expansion of Shetty’s cop universe, with Ajay Devgn reprising his role as the righteous cop, Bajirao Singham. The recent filming shift to Kashmir has only heightened fans’ anticipation for the film. Leaked photos from the shoot have already created a buzz online, and now Shetty has unveiled an official photo featuring Devgn. Released on May 24th, the photo shows Devgn posing with army tanks, hinting at the intensity of his character’s role. The caption reads, “BAJIRAO SINGHAM! SSP (SOG) SPECIAL OPERATIONS GROUP JAMMU & KASHMIR POLICE… SINGHAM AGAIN… COMING SOON! #singhamagain.”
Singham Again is the third installment in the highly successful Singham franchise. Alongside Devgn and Shroff, the film boasts an impressive star cast including Bollywood heavyweights Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, Tiger Shroff, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Arjun Kapoor.
Originally slated for an August 15, 2024 release, a previous Bollywood Hungama report suggests a possible delay to Diwali 2024 to avoid a clash with another highly anticipated movie, Pushpa: The Rule.
