While three actors playing top cops have united for Rohit Shetty’s Sooryavanshi — Ajay Devgn as Singham, Ranveer Singh as Sangram Bhalerao a.k.a Simmba and Akshay Kumar as Sooryavanshi — speculation on whether Rani Mukerji (Devgn’s co-star on Chori Chori, Yuva and LOC Kargil) will also make an appearance in her Mardaani avatar in the third part of Shetty’s cop anthology. The director confirmed recently that Singham would be the focus of the next part of the cop universe, which will also have Veer Sooryavanshi and Sangram Bhalerao making appearances.
“There is a strong rumour about Rani’s presence in Singham 3. Rani is also Ajay’s sister-in-law, by virtue of being Kajol’s cousin. Earlier, there was a buzz about Salman Khan also being a part of the cop universe in his Dabangg role of Robinhood Pandey. This is also one of the biggest cop characters in Bollywood in recent times, and if all five of them are together in a film, then it creates a huge buzz. It is just that Mardaani is backed by Yash Raj Films and hence that probability is rather low that Rani would be a part of this universe. Unless, of course, a certain deal is worked out,” say trade sources.
