Filmmaker Rohit Shetty is all set to introduce a female cop in his universe. Speaking to indianexpress.com, Shetty said that without a female cop the 'universe won't be complete'. The three movies from his 'cop universe' - Singham, Simmba and Sooryavanshi - have men as protagonists.
"Without a female lead or cop the universe won't be complete. We are waiting because we have lost two years of our lives. 'Sooryavanshi' was supposed to release two years back. Also, if I am making a movie with a woman at the helm, it has to be on the level of 'Singham' or 'Sooryavanshi'. Till the time I don't get such a story I cannot proceed just because there is a demand for a female cop in the universe".Rohit Shetty, Filmmaker
Shetty also spoke about why Bollywood doesn't make a lot of action films anymore. "Like every other genre, action is also important. Earlier, we had a lot of action movies. We still have so many in the South, with great plots and performances. However, in Hindi we only have a handful of action filmmakers. We should make more of such films", Shetty told indianexpress.com
