Singham Again: Ajay Devgn and team to launch trailer of Rohit Shetty’s film on THIS date in grand event for fans? Here’s what we know

Singham Again is one of the most anticipated movies of 2024. The next installment in the Cop Universe brings back Ajay Devgn along with a stellar star cast. Fans have eagerly been waiting for the trailer of the Rohit Shetty directorial. A recent report has revealed that the team is all set to launch the trailer of this Diwali release on October 7 in a grand event for fans.

According to Bollywood Hungama, the trailer of the upcoming film Singham Again will be launched on October 7 during an event at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre in Mumbai. The film stars Ajay Devgn, Deepika Padukone, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Tiger Shroff, Arjun Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Ranveer Singh, and Akshay Kumar. 

As per the portal’s source, the actors are expected to be present at the event to unveil the trailer of their action-packed movie. Additionally, both media as well as the fans of the star cast will be invited to be a part of the grand trailer launch. 

The portal also revealed that the makers want the trailer to be as big as their film. “The trailer content along with the headline-grabbing event will make sure that the hype for the film and India’s first cop universe will increase drastically,” the source added.

Pinkvilla has regularly been bringing exclusive updates about Singham Again. We recently reported that the satellite, digital, and music rights of Singham Again have collectively fetched over Rs 200 crore. 

A source close to the development stated, “It’s the biggest non-theatrical deal for Ajay Devgn as well as Rohit Shetty. While Rohit Shetty films have always secured big monies from the satellite players owing to tremendous demand from the audience, Singham Again has been paid premium prices by the digital players too. And why not? The film actually has the biggest ensemble set-up for a feature film in the last few decades.”

Singham Again is the fifth installment in the famous Cop franchise and is a sequel to Singham Returns. It is set to arrive in cinemas on the festive occasion of Diwali.

The 500 Crore Box Office Club: From Pathaan to Stree 2, 5 Bollywood films that neted half a thousand in India in Hindi

Baahubali 2 in 2017 became the first Indian film to net Rs 500 crore in Hindi. Since then, no Bollywood film was able to net even Rs 400 crore, forget Rs 500 crore. After the Covid-19 Pandemic, when the state of box office was really bad, especially for Hindi films, big Bollywood films starting with Pathaan did unprecedented business, set new benchmarks and played a catylst in what is considered to be the greatest revival story for the Hindi Film Industry.

From Pathaan To Stree 2, Bollywood Films That Neted Rs 500 Crore Or More In Hindi In India

Pathaan became the first Bollywood film to enter the Rs 500 crore club and it beat Baahubali 2 to become an all time grosser for the Hindi language. Not too long after, Gadar 2, despite a clash with OMG 2, not just entered the Rs 500 crore club but also crossed the collections of Pathaan to become yet another all time grosser in Hindi. Gadar 2’s record lasted just a day as Jawan mania gripped the nation. Animal, despite a clash with Sam Bahadur, and with an A-rating, became the fourth Bollywood film to net Rs 500 crore in Hindi. Stree 2 is the newest addition to the list of Bollywood films to net Rs 500 crore in Hindi. The film clashed with Khel Khel Mein and Vedaa but from the opening day itself, it decimated the two competing films and set new records. Stree 2 is currently the highest grossing Bollywood film and the most profitable too.

Naga Chaitanya Samantha slam ministerâs remarks on their divorce

Top Telugu stars, including Naga Chaitanya and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, have slammed Telangana Minister Konda Surekha’s remarks on their divorce. The Minister linked Bharat Rashtra Samithi leader KT Rama Rao with the divorce of the actors. Surekha said, “KTR asked to send Samantha in return for not demolishing the N-convention centre. Nagarjuna forced Samantha to go to KTR, but she said no. That led to divorce.”

Chaitanya released a statement that called out the baseless and completely ridiculous take on the matter. He said, “The decision of divorce is easily one of the most painful and unfortunate life decisions one has to make. After a lot of thought, a mutual decision was made by me and my former spouse to part ways.”
The statement added, “Today, the claim made by Minister Konda Surekha garu is not only false, it is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable.”

Samantha Ruth Prabhu, too, took to her social media handle to react to the statement. She wrote, “To be a woman, to come out and work, to survive in a glamorous industry where women are more often than not treated as props, to fall in love & to fall out of love, to still stand up and fight… It takes a lot of courage and strength. Konda Surekha Garu, I am proud of what this journey turned me into—please don’t trivialise it. I hope you realise that your words carry significant weight as a minister. I implore you to be responsible and respectful of individuals’ privacy.”

Chay’s parents Nagarjuna Akkineni and Amala Akkineni and his actor-brother Akhil Akkineni, too, reacted to the statements made by Surekha. While Nagarjuna asked Surekha to withdraw her comments immediately, Akhil called her a sociopath.

My dear mother I support every word you have said and I am With you and the family..I’m sorry that you have to address this demonic nonsense but we have no choice sometimes but to deal with such sociopaths. https://t.co/an9SrXBkon

Besides them, several top actors from the Telugu film industry called out these comments. Strong reactions came in from Jr NTR, Chiranjeevi Konidela, Allu Arjun and Nani.

Konda Surekha garu, dragging personal lives into politics is a new low. Public figures, especially those in responsible positions like you, must maintain dignity and respect for privacy. It’s disheartening to see baseless statements thrown around carelessly, especially about the…

I am extremely pained to see the disgraceful remarks made by an honourable woman minister.

It is a shame that celebs and members of film fraternity become soft targets as they provide instant reach and attention. We as Film Industry stand united in opposing such vicious verbal…

Disgusting to see politicians thinking that they can get away talking any kind of nonsense. When your words can be so irresponsible it’s stupid of us to expect that you will have any responsibility for your people. It’s not just about actors or cinema. This is not abt any…
