The cop universe continues to expand with the forthcoming "Singham Again," which features Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, and Tiger Shroff. Additionally, Deepika Padukone is set to make history as the first female cop in this action-packed franchise.
"Singham Again" is scheduled to release after "Indian Police Force" on August 15, 2024, coinciding with India's Independence Day, promising an action-packed and entertaining experience for fans of the genre.
