What We Think

Singham Again is refreshingly non-woke, focusing on heroism and cultural pride rather than trendy ideology. If you want substance-over-sloganeering, this is the non-woke Bollywood blockbuster for you.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Singham Again follows its franchise tradition, placing character, action, and heroism front and center. Casting decisions appear based on fit and continuity, not forced diversity. There’s hardly any focus on identity factors over skill. It’s unapologetically about the protagonist’s values and justice.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film celebrates traditional respect for family, law enforcement, and duty. Masculinity is depicted as admirable, with strong male leads front and center. Religion and Indian cultural motifs are, if anything, honored rather than undermined. There’s no subversion or revisionism here.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives, particularly traditional and nationalist views, aren’t mocked. Villains aren’t caricatures of dissenters but classic antagonists. No ideological uniformity towards modern identity politics, just good old Bollywood justice.
