Rohit Shetty- Ajay Devgn: The dream team

Ajay Devgn starrer Singham has been making news from the day its first promo released. And the buzz has remained steady for this Reliance Entertainment and Rohit Shetty production. 

In Bollywood, numbers speak louder than actions. As a team, Rohit and Ajay have a record of four super hits out of their six films together. Golmaal 3, their last box office outing, is on Bollywood's list of the highest grossers of all time. 

After giving the janta a good dose of laughter, this actor-director combination has shifted gears. Singham is an action thriller. The trade says that this high octane cop drama is being eagerly awaited after Salman Khan's Dabangg, another cop drama that rewrote box office history. 

Singham has all the staple ingredients of a masala movie. Says trade analyst Komal Nahata, "From the look of it, there's going to be an earthquake at the box office when Singham strikes on July 22." 

Bollywood's Hero No 1 Salman Khan feels that the film will work because it has the right quotient of raw action, emotions and good music. "This combo is normally irresistible," says Salman, who actually released the first look of the film with his blockbuster Ready. 

Even as others around him are going ga-ga over the prospects of this cop caper, Ajay says, "I've waited really long for a film like Singham to come my way. The release is just 11 days away... and I can feel the excitement build up. I'm happy to share the film with my audience. I promise they won't be disappointed." 
Rohit, whose personal equity as a filmmaker is currently on par with the best in Bollywood, is happy with the way the wind is blowing, "I have lost count of the number of congratulatory messages I received for the trailer. With this film, I have rediscovered action, a genre Ajay and I had moved away from because of our last four films."
