: Although not directly titled as a Singam film, "Sooryavanshi" is often considered a part of the Singam series due to its shared universe and Suriya's cameo. The film stars Akshay Kumar in the lead role and features a crossover with the Singam universe.
When you hear the word Singam (Lion), you don’t just think of an animal. You think of Duraisingam — the fearless, mustache-twirling, honest police officer brought to life by Suriya in director Hari’s blockbuster franchise.
The keyword often draws interest due to the iconic starring Suriya. Directed by Hari, this franchise redefined the "honest cop" trope in Tamil cinema.
The first Singam (2010) introduced us to a small-town inspector with a heart of gold and fists of fire. It wasn’t just an action film; it was a festival of whistle-worthy moments, punch dialogues, and that iconic “Naan oru Singam da!” (I am a lion, bro!) which became a cultural catchphrase overnight.
