Ajay flies back from Bangkok for Singham 2 workshop

Ajay Devgn
It’s Singham time for Action Jackson. Ajay Devgn who usually does one film at a time suddenly finds his date diary clogged with commitments this year, so much so that he has left Prabhu Dheva behind in Bangkok and returned to Mumbai for a swig of Singham. While the Action Jackson (yes, the film is still titled that!) director Prabhu Dheva has stayed back in Bangkok, Ajay Devgn who was shooting for a long spell for the film has flown back to Mumbai for a script reading and intensive rehearsal session for his best-friend Rohit Shetty’s Singham 2. Devgn joined his Singham co-actors Kareena Kapoor and Amole Gupte for what turned out to be an immensely revealing bout of pre-shooting preparation. While the film’s leading lady Kareena Kapoor and the film’s arch-villain Amole Gupte are no strangers to acting workshops, Ajay Devgn is a notorious switch-off-switch-on actor. Apparently the last time he indulged himself in an acting workshop was when he did Zakham with Mahesh Bhatt and Vishal Bhardwaj’s Omkara. But why the need for acting workshops for a full-on masala action film? Apparently Singham 2 is far less masala, much more meaningful than Singham. Says a source close to the project, “From the outside it may look like another Rohit Shetty-Devgn fun and masti film. But Singham 2 is not a routine khaki-‘wordy’ drama about a cop doing heavy dialogue-baazi. This cop’s film will look at the burning issues in the country.” Amole Gupte is all praise for Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn and Kareena. “It’s all a new sur, a new rhythm of working for me. The writer Farhan (from the Sajid-Farhan duo) is such a terrific storyteller. It’s erroneous to presume that a commercial film doesn’t demand much preparation. You’ll be surprised at how much concentration an actor needs to get the language of a massy film right.” Apparently Ajay Devgn will take his character cop act as Singham Bajirao to another level in Singham 2. An actor from the film reveals, “Singham was a remake of a Tamil film. Singham 2 is an original script. There is no point making another anti-establishment cop film. Rohit will look at all the grim happenings in the country since the Nirbhaya incident.” Apparently Singham 2 would have no songs and no item numbers, a first for a Rohit Shetty films, though Devgn, Kareena and Amole Guptea are no strangers to the realistic space in cinema.
