Singham

Singham follows Bajirao Singham, an upright police officer serving in a small coastal community on the border between Maharashtra and Goa. His life takes a turn when he is transferred to a city dominated by a powerful criminal figure he had once embarrassed. The gangster, Jaikant Shikre, uses his influence to make the officer's new posting a nightmare, testing Singham's principles as he tries to fight the system without abandoning the law. The film is a remake of the 2010 Tamil movie Singam.

Rohit Shetty directed this 2011 Hindi-language action crime drama, the first title in his directing career listed here before Chennai Express and Singham Returns.
