Singh Saab the Great

An upright IAS officer steps into the role of Collector in a quiet town, bringing with him a reputation for honesty and a firm belief in serving the common people. Shikha Chaturvedi is a sharp TV journalist who begins to untangle the truth behind this celebrated figure, wondering whether the public image masks a more complex reality.

The story opens in the small village of Chironji, where a dispute over food issues erupts between the locals and a brutal goon named Jatta Singh. At the center of the rising tension stands Singh Saab Sunny Deol, a man whose integrity, steadfast ethics, and reverence for nonviolence define every choice he makes. He arrives with a message from a movement called People’s Beat, proposing to channel the profits from Singh Singh’s factories toward a noble cause. This bold stance infuriates Jatta Singh, who meets Singh Saab with aggression, and a clash quickly spirals into a dangerous duel that tests both men’s limits and their beliefs.

As the confrontations mount, Singh Saab faces more invitations and demands, including one from an enigmatic figure named Bhadhori that unsettles him deeply. A TV reporter, Shikha Chaturvedi [Amrita Rao], closes in, convinced that there is more to his public persona than meets the eye. Faced with the weight of the questions she raises, Singh Saab chooses to reveal the backstory that will illuminate his present-day mission. He travels back seven years to a time when he was known as Saranjeet Singh Talwar [Sunny Deol], an IAS officer sent to Bhadhori as the Collector, ready to enforce justice in the face of entrenched corruption.

In Bhadhori, Saranjeet takes on a system compromised by the crime lord Bhoodev Singh [Prakash Raj], a powerful figure who wields influence over factories and threatens anyone who dares to resist. Bhoodev’s greed is tied to a dangerous demand: he will ruin lives, including those close to Saranjeet, if the new Collector does not play along. The tension erupts into a personal battle when Bhoodev’s reach extends to Saranjeet’s family, with the stakes rising as the forces of crime escalate their coercion.

The turning point comes when Bhoodev targets Saranjeet’s sister-in-law, forcing him to navigate impossible choices. Tragedy strikes when Minnie [Urvashi Rautela], Saranjeet’s wife, is poisoned after a drink is spiked. The hospital fight that follows leads to a grim bargain: Minnie’s life hinges on a risky surgery, and Saranjeet agrees to a price that includes concessions in the battle against Bhoodev’s empire. Despite every effort, Minnie passes away, leaving Saranjeet devastated and enraged.

The heartbreak hardens into a harsh resolve that lands Saranjeet in prison for sixteen years. During this dark chapter, an old friend, Mohammad Iqbal, now a jailor, encourages a shift from revenge toward reform and a steadfast commitment to changing the system from within. This counsel plants the seeds for a future different from the original path of retribution.

Back in the present, the transformed Singh Saab stands as a beacon of reform, applying the hard-won lessons of his past to root out corruption. He confronts Bhoodev and his henchmen once again, this time with a broader, cleaner purpose: to protect the vulnerable and restore faith in public service. The climax features a daring rescue when Bhoodev abducts Simar and her son, a moment that culminates in a dramatic confrontation high among bamboo stalks, underscoring the protagonist’s renewed commitment to justice over vengeance. The confrontation sends a clear message: integrity and courage can prevail, even when the odds are stacked.

In the final act, Singh Saab dismantles the criminal network and liberates those who were exploited, choosing a life of service and peace over revenge. He leaves Bhadhori behind, not as a defeated man, but as a reformer who believes that a better future is built on steady, principled action. The story’s arc—moving from personal tragedy to public virtue—celebrates resilience, accountability, and the quiet strength of someone who refuses to abandon the ideals that once guided him.

Gulwinder, Murli, Bhaiyyaji, Trilok, and other figures from the sprawling cast populate this world, but the core remains the evolution of a man who transforms hardship into a mission: to protect the vulnerable, confront corruption, and forge a path toward a more just society.
