Ajay Devgn Celebrates 15 Years of Singham With Rohit Shetty, Shares Powerful Tribute Video to Bajirao Singham

One of Bollywood's most iconic action films has completed a major milestone. Marking 15 years of Singham, actor Ajay Devgn took to social media to celebrate the enduring legacy of the blockbuster by sharing a special action-packed video montage featuring his legendary character, Bajirao Singham.

Sharing the tribute on his social media handles, Ajay Devgn wrote, "July is indeed a special one for us @iamrohitshetty #15YearsOfSingham." The post also tagged filmmaker Rohit Shetty, celebrating a collaboration that has gone on to redefine the action genre in Hindi cinema and give birth to one of Bollywood's biggest cinematic franchises.

The video is a nostalgic montage packed with some of Bajirao Singham's most memorable moments from the 2011 blockbuster. From high-octane action sequences and powerful confrontations to the fearless police officer's trademark intensity, the tribute revisits the film that introduced audiences to one of Indian cinema's most beloved cops. Fans quickly flooded the comments section, reminiscing about the film's iconic dialogues, explosive action scenes, and unforgettable face-off between Bajirao Singham and Prakash Raj's villainous Jaikant Shikre.

Released on July 22, 2011, Singham was directed by Rohit Shetty and produced by Reliance Entertainment. A Hindi remake of Hari's 2010 Tamil blockbuster Singam, the film starred Ajay Devgn in the title role alongside Kajal Aggarwal, while Prakash Raj reprised his acclaimed role as the ruthless politician Jaikant Shikre. The film was praised for its action, emotional storytelling, punchy dialogues, and tribute to classic Bollywood masala entertainers.

Made on a reported budget of around ₹41 crore, Singham emerged as a major box office success, collecting over ₹141 crore worldwide. Beyond its commercial triumph, the film gradually attained cult status, with Bajirao Singham becoming one of Ajay Devgn's most celebrated screen characters. The film also marked Devgn and Rohit Shetty's successful return to the action genre after several years, paving the way for a long-standing creative partnership.

The success of Singham laid the foundation for Rohit Shetty's Cop Universe, which expanded with Singham Returns (2014), Simmba (2018), Sooryavanshi (2021), and Singham Again (2024). Over the years, the franchise has evolved into one of Hindi cinema's biggest action universes, bringing together multiple larger-than-life police officers while retaining Bajirao Singham as its moral compass and central figure.

Fifteen years later, Singham continues to enjoy immense popularity among audiences, with its memorable dialogues, action sequences, and iconic performances remaining a favorite among fans. Ajay Devgn's tribute serves as a reminder of the film's lasting cultural impact and celebrates a partnership with Rohit Shetty that forever changed the landscape of mainstream Bollywood action cinema.
