Set in the backdrop of a village called Singarayakonda which is ruled by a self-proclaimed king and mafia-lord, Lingam. He fancies himself as the destructive force and an archenemy of Law and Order. After several failed attempts by Indian Police throughout the decade, Singham123 is assigned the mission impossible - to arrest Lingam. Will Singham 123 be successful in completing the mission?
A critic from The Hindu wrote that "After a long time comes Sampoornesh’s second film Singham 123 in which he plays a cop and the story that follows his filmi introduction is nothing but collection of spoofs, parodies from all hit films".[1]
A critic from The Hans India rated the film two-and-a-half out of five and wrote that "Watch for good laughs without expecting story".[3]
