Singh is King: Comedy and Romance | RecentFusion.com

There is hardly a boring sequence in Anees Bazmee directed Bollywood movie Singh is King. The movie is a fusion of comedy, romance and some misdeed that are done by Akshay Kumar as Happy Singh.

Happy's tasks make his neighbors and relatives unhappy but make joyful to the audiences. According to Wikipedia, Lakhan Singh (Sonu Sood) is the "king" of the Australian underworld, accompanied by his associates (played by Javed Jaffrey,Neha Dhupia, Manoj Pahwa, Yashpal Sharma,Kamal Chopra and Sudhanshu Pande). Far away in a small village in Punjab where Lucky was born there is someone more notorious than him - Happy Singh (Akshay Kumar). The village is fed up of his magnanimity which has resulted in a number of hillariously disastrous situations. Out of desperation they decide to send him on a long trip to bring the gangster Lucky back to Punjab as his despicable deeds were maligning the community's image in Australia.

Happy takes this mission quite seriously and embarks on his journey accompanied by his friend Rangeela (Om Puri). The high point of his journey is when he meets Sonia (Katrina Kaif) whom he starts loving but upon reaching his destination things take a precarious turn when a series of comic misadventures run him out of any money. He is fortunate to find warmth and affection in a elderly lady (Kirron Kher) who helps him meet Lucky. In a strange turn of events Lucky is saved from a life threatening attack by Happy risking his own life. Inspite of this, Lucky is paralyzed and Happy becomes the new 'King'. The series of chaos, shocks and misunderstandings result in a laugh riot.

Akshay Kumar as Happy Singh: He's truly a King at heart - brave, compassionate, noble and helpful. But he's an equally flawed human - gullible, foolhardy and accident - prone. Circumstances often overwhelm him and his efforts to do good almost always have the opposite effect. In fact, each time he sets out to help somebody, his entire village shudders at the prospect of impending disaster, when they send him on a mission that's seemingly impossible, they underestimate his ability to not just overcome the odds but also transform those he encounters on a journey that takes him halfway across the world.

Katrina Kaif as Sonia: She is a chirpy, fun-loving student of law who loses her cool only when confronted by criminals. But nothing prepares her for the twist fate has in store for her when she finds herself surrounded by some of the most dangerous gangsters in Australia!
