"When he roars, crime trembles. The iconic police blockbuster that set the blueprint for Indian cop cinema."
Storyline & Synopsis
Singam is the roaring cop action blockbuster directed by Hari, featuring Suriya in his immortal avatar as the ferocious police officer Duraisingam, alongside Anushka Shetty and Prakash Raj.
Duraisingam (Suriya) is an honest, respected Sub-Inspector of Police serving peacefully in his coastal native village of Nallur. He resolves village disputes with compassion and falls in love with Kavya (Anushka Shetty). However, when Chennai-based ruthless extortionist and kidnapping kingpin Mayil Vaaganam (Prakash Raj) is mandated by court to sign daily conditional bail in Nallur, he insults Duraisingam's police honor. Mayil Vaaganam uses his political influence to transfer Singam to the bustling harbor city of Chennai to humiliate him. Instead of backing down, Duraisingam roars like a lion, mobilizing honest officers to demolish Mayil Vaaganam's mafia syndicate.
