Released in 2008, Singh Is Kinng , starring Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif in lead roles, was one of the most successful films of the year. Ever since the stupendous success of the film, there have been a lot of speculations around a possible sequel to it but nothing was ever confirmed officially. But if latest reports are to be believed, Singh Is Kingg sequel is finally happening, albeit with a new title and actor. Yes, Ranveer Singh has reportedly been signed to star in the sequel to the film which will now be called Sher Singh.

Reportedly, filmmaker Shailendra Singh had announced that he was keen on making a sequel to the movie and that he had finalized a new title even better than the first one. Talking about why he opted for a new title, Shailendra Singh said that while he was keen on taking the title Singh Is Kinng forward, he had to retitle the film to Sher Singh because filmmaker Vipul Shah was not ready to give up the title.

Further talking about the film, Singh added that Sher Singh would not be a superhero film as such but he is planning to turn Sher Singh into a franchise film with the main character being a normal yet extraordinary person. The producer will give a narration to Ranveer Singh as soon as the script of the film is ready.
