While many celebrated Khan’s return, not all fans were satisfied with his cameo. Some expressed disappointment over the limited screen time and felt the character was underutilized. “An iconic character wasted,” lamented one fan, while another voiced frustration over the lack of a proper background score and an unsatisfactory portrayal of Chulbul.
Salman Khan’s cameo in Singham Again serves as a teaser for the upcoming sequel, Mission Chulbul Singham, leaving fans eager for more. The film has certainly set the stage for the next chapter in Shetty’s cop universe, blending excitement with a touch of nostalgia for one of Bollywood’s beloved characters.
