Rohit Shetty Had It Easy With Singham

Ajay Devgan and Rohit Shetty have big expectations from Singham, and no one’s grudging them for that. In fact, Ajay and Rohit have already attached the first promo of their cop flick with Salman Khan’s Ready, which releases this Friday. It’s a double treat for the audience!

So how did Rohit go about with ‘Singham’? Filmmaker Rohit Shetty and Reliance Entertainment were in talks about their next project. When Reliance suggested Rohit to look at the Tamil film Singam (starring south Indian actor Suriya), he decided to give it a thought. Rohit was so impressed by the movie that, within two days, he agreed to make the Hindi version of ‘Singam’. And the ball kept rolling. No sooner had Rohit agreed to do the film, than he had roped in Ajay Devgan to play the lead role within a few days!

Similar to the Tamil action-packed film, the Hindi film will have Ajay playing a tough, honest cop. South Indian actor Prakash Raj, who played the bad guy in the Tamil film, will retain his villainous role in the Hindi movie. Some parts of the film have been shot in Goa.
