A sudden strike of destiny sets up Singham against the tremendously powerful criminal cum politician Jaykant Shikre (Prakash Raj), challenging his morals and beliefs. Jaykant's powerful planning and force makes Singham land up in the ruling city of Jaykant Shikre, the city of 'Goa', where he leaves no stone unturned to make Singham's life a nightmare to live. Singham's supportive girlfriend Kavya (Kajal Aggarwal) and his tryst with Late Mr. Rakesh Kadam's family makes him realize the importance to bring a change in the system by eradicating the root cause Jaykant Shikre, by not going against the law of force but by being a powerful part of it. -- (C) Reliance

Critic Reviews

Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
Bollywood fans are more likely than not to be able to go with "Singham's'" lengthy - but lively - ride.
-
Rachel Saltz, New York Times
More and more, Bollywood movies are urban tales for urban audiences. What feels most backward-glancing about "Singham" is its uncomplicated, even cartoonish insistence on the benefits of village soil over city dirt for cultivating bedrock Indian values.
-
Manish Gajjar, Birmingham Mail
There are liberal dashes of comedy and action all rolled into one typically Shetty film.
