After the rocking success of Dabangg, almost every Bollywood superstar is readying to don the cop uniform.
Khaki is the most revered colour in Bollywood currently. While Aamir is shooting a suspense thriller on the streets of Mumbai in his policeman's uniform, Ajay Devgn is scorching the streets of Goa for the adrenaline thumping Singham produced by Reliance Entertainment.
The return of Ajay in his khaki avatar is exciting because he is back to action after an eight-year gap. Says he, "It's a film about men. Singham will mark the return of hardcore raw action to the cinemas with a lot of dialogue-baazi and machismo. It should sock a punch, it will connect to the man on the street because of its simple narrative and terrific action."
Director Rohit Shetty, who is at the helm of affairs, has become a force to reckon with in the last five years. His combination with Ajay is also now considered rock solid. This duo has so far delivered four back-to-back hits in the Golmaal series and All The Best. And their return to action is being heralded because both are quintessentially men who speak with their fists.
Says Rohit, "My hero Bajirao Singham (Ajay) is a simple police officer who is happy to toe the line till he is provoked by baddie Prakash Raj to show his ferocious side. And when Ajay does that, hell breaks loose.'' With action coursing his veins, Rohit is the son of yesteryear fight master Shetty and has assisted the famous fight composer Veeru Devgan. He promises a larger-than-life spectacle in his cop-drama that releases on
July 22.
He is also introducing newcomer Kajal Aggarwal as the romantic lead in the film. When asked how different his action is from what we have seen before, Rohit says, "I have not used a single foreign fighter or imported any foreign equipment for my film. I personally feel indigenous action has a better impact than all the foreign stunts that people are obsessing about these days. As Indians, we identify with our style of raw action, which we have sidelined because some of us have suddenly developed an affinity to the West. To each his own, but for me what works is our own desi action.''
