Singham Again, being dubbed as Desi Avengers, brings together the three main forces of Rohit Shetty's cop universe – Ajay Devgn as Singham, Ranveer Singh as Simmba, and Akshay Kumar as Sooryavanshi. It also introduces two fresh characters in Deepika Padukone's Shakti Shetty and Tiger Shroff's Satya. The biggest surprise, however, remains Salman Khan's entry as Chulbul Pandey!
The coming together of such a massive star cast and the Ramayana-themed storyline are two major highlights of Singham Again and will continue to pull audiences in huge numbers over the weekend.
Singham Again vs Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3
As was expected, Singham Again won the opening day battle against Kartik Aaryan's Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 by a good enough margin. Nonetheless, the Anees Bazmee-directed horror-comedy has also surpassed expectations with its excellent start. Together, Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 have truly set the box office on fire. It will now be even more interesting to see how the two biggies stack up against each other from here on.
While Singham Again also features Kareena Kapoor Khan and Arjun Kapoor, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has Triptii Dimri, Vidya Balan, and Madhuri Dixit.
