Mom-to-be Deepika Padukone is currently shooting for Rohit Shetty’s upcoming film Singham Again. On Friday, Rohit teased fans with a sneak peek of Deepika’s character Shakti Shetty on Instagram, revealing the actor in action as the fierce cop.

In the still, Deepika channels power and intensity, mirroring the iconic Tiger step made famous by Ajay Devgn in Singham (2011). Apart from sharing the picture, Rohit also penned a heartwarming note for Deepika. He wrote, “MY HERO… REEL MEIN BHI AUR REAL MEIN BHI LADY SINGHAM!!”

Fans on the internet rushed to the comments section of the post and expressed excitement. One of the fans wrote, “GOAT performance on the way.” Others said ‘can’t wait’ and dropped red heart emoticons.

Singham Again also stars Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Tiger Shroff, Arjun Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor. A few days ago, Deepika’s pictures from the sets of the movie were leaked online. The actor was seen wearing the cop uniform and was seemingly shooting for a scene.

Deepika Padukone’s character in the upcoming Singham movie was introduced last year along with the first look poster. It came with a warning which read, “most brutal and violent officer of our cop universe.”

Meanwhile, the actor announced her pregnancy in February this year. Deepika and Ranveer took to social media and shared a photo announcing the same.

Singham Again marks the third installment in Rohit Shetty’s copverse, following Singham and Singham Returns (2014). In the film, Deepika’s husband, actor Ranveer Singh will portray Sangram Bhalerao aka Simmba.
