	After some time, Singham and Avni fall in love with each other. However, it is then revealed that Singham hasn't resigned and came to Shivgarh on an undercover mission to find evidence against Babaji. At Wadhavpur, he catches Babaji's henchman named Altaf Khan who distributes the black money in order to bribe the voters. While coming to Mumbai with a convoy, it is attacked by Babaji's henchmen and Altaf is shot and slips into coma. On the other hand, Rao harms all of Guruji's candidates, including Avni, because her in-hiding brother Kishore is one of the candidates. Singham manages to save Avni and during a political event, the female family members of the candidates slap Rao due to this act. Altaf soon recovers and testifies against him.

	After some time, Singham and Avni fall in love with each other. However, it is then revealed that Singham hasn't resigned and came to Shivgarh on an undercover mission to find evidence against Babaji. At Wadhavpur, he catches Babaji's henchman named Altaf Khan who distributes the black money in order to bribe the voters. While coming to Mumbai with a convoy, it is attacked by Babaji's henchmen and Altaf is shot and slips into coma. On the other hand, Rao harms all of Guruji's candidates, including Avni, because her in-hiding brother Kishore is one of the candidates. Singham manages to save Avni and during a political event, the female family members of the candidates slap Rao due to this act. Altaf soon recovers and testifies against him.

This causes Babaji and Rao to go scot-free due to lack of evidence. Realizing the futility of the law, Singham and his team reach their house without wearing their police uniforms, joined in by police from all around Mumbai.

Bajirao Singham ([[Ajay Devgn]]) who is now a [[Deputy Commissioner of Police (India)|Deputy Commissioner of Police]], gets transferred to Mumbai and discovers that one of his team members, Mahesh, is found dead inside an ambulance with massive bags of money. Singham decides to unearth the truth behind it and in this process, he collides with a powerful and fraudulent religious leader, Satyaraj Chandar a.k.a. Babaji ([[Amole Gupte]]), who has high-profile connections with corrupt politicians, including the ruling party's leader Guruji's ([[Anupam Kher]]) secretary minister Prakash Rao ([[Zakir Hussain (actor)|Zakir Hussain]]).

During this period, Guruji is killed by Babaji's henchmen due to Guruji's opposition to Rao's scheme, even though Singham was present at the scene. He vows revenge. Because of this, he has to pretend that he has resigned in front of his family. Due to this, his father asks him and his childhood friend, Avni ([[Kareena Kapoor]]), to come to their home town, Shivgarh. After some time, Singham and Avni fall in love with each other. However, it is then revealed that Singham hasn't resigned and came to Shivgarh on a mission to get some evidence against Babaji.

When they get back to Mumbai, Babaji starts threatening Singham's family. On the other hand, Rao harms all of Guruji's candidates, including Avni, because her brother Kishore ([[Sameer Dharmadhikari]]) is one of the candidates. Singham manages to save everyone but before they resign, one of Babaji's henchmen, Altaf ([[Pankaj Tripathi]]), wakes up from a coma and testifies against him. Singham arrests Babaji and Rao. However, some party workers execute an attack outside the court, [[homicide|killing the witnesses]]. This causes Babaji and Rao to go scot free. But after Babaji gets released, Singham and his team goes to his house without wearing their police uniforms, joined in by police from all around Mumbai. They successfully fight Babaji and Rao's men.
