Rohit Shetty’s hints for Deepika Padukone as Lady Singham in a stand-alone film!

Rohit Shetty, director of Singham Again, recently talked about the next stand-alone movie that stars Deepika Padukone as Lady Singham in his popular Cop Universe.

Singham Again, the latest Cop Universe edition featured a number of both new and old characters. Deepika Padukone introduced Lady Singham, also known as Shakti Shetty. Deepika's part in the standalone film has now been updated by director Rohit Shetty. He admitted that he was still not sure how to proceed with their concept.

In a recent press conference, Rohit Shetty explained why it took so long for a female police officer to appear in his fictitious world. He disclosed that he was waiting on the right script for the character. He even went so far as to predict that the Cop Universe won't be around in 2018. While filming Sooryavanshi, starring Akshay Kumar, Rohit said he had the notion to feature a female police officer.

According to Rohit, work is still ongoing on the script for the Deepika Padukone stand-alone film. He disclosed, “We do have a concept in mind, but we don’t know where we can go with it.” The filmmaker added that it would take time.

Regarding Shakti Shetty, Rohit disclosed, “I know what the character will be like and her basic story arc, but I don’t know her whole journey yet as a director or writer.”

He asserted that a film featuring Lady Singham would have surely been produced had she not been introduced to the universe. Rohit claims that there was a reason why her involvement in the most recent movie, Singham Again, was given so much attention.

In 2023, Rohit Shetty made Deepika Padukone's first appearance as Lady Singham public.

He penned in the caption, “NAARI SITA KA BHI ROOP HAI AUR DURGA KA BHI... (Woman is the form of Sita and also of Durga). MEET THE MOST BRUTAL AND VIOLENT OFFICER OF OUR COP UNIVERSE... SHAKTI SHETTY... MY LADY SINGHAM... DEEPIKA PADUKONE.”

The cast of Singham Again also includes Jackie Shroff, Tiger Shroff, Arjun Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Ajay Devgn. The film is now playing in theaters.
