The Cop Universe or Copverse is an Indian media franchise and shared universe created by Rohit Shetty.{{Cite web |url=https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/sooryavanshi-trailer-akshay-kumar-is-all-guns-blazing-in-rohit-shettys-latest-cop-universe-film/article30961970.ece |title='Sooryavanshi' trailer: Akshay Kumar is all guns blazing in Rohit Shetty's latest 'Cop Universe' film |date=2 March 2020 |website=The Hindu |url-status=live |access-date=19 March 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200302084429/https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/sooryavanshi-trailer-akshay-kumar-is-all-guns-blazing-in-rohit-shettys-latest-cop-universe-film/article30961970.ece |archive-date=2 March 2020 }} It consists of media that focuses on police officers. The franchise includes films, animated series, video games and television series. The universe was established by crossing over common plot elements, settings, cast, and characters.

The first two films, Singham (2011) and Singham Returns (2014) focus on Bajirao Singham, a law-abiding DCP from Shivgarh who fights for justice. The third, Simmba (2018), focuses on Sangram "Simmba" Bhalerao, a corrupt Inspector from the same town as Bajirao, who takes advantage of his job.{{Cite web |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/bollywood/rohit-shetty-singham-franchise-copyrights-with-us-4826197/ |title=Rohit Shetty: Singham franchise copyrights are with us |date=3 September 2017 |website=The Indian Express |access-date=2 January 2019}} The fourth, Sooryavanshi (2021), stars Akshay Kumar as DCP Veer Sooryavanshi. The fifth movie Singham Again (2024) brings all the characters together and is loosely based on the Indian mythology, Ramayana.

Development

Seeing the success of the Tamil-language film, Singam (2010), directed by Hari, the film rights for the Hindi and Kannada versions were sold by the makers. Reliance Big Pictures, which co-produced the original version, bought the Hindi remake rights and announced in November 2010 that the version would feature Rohit Shetty as director and Ajay Devgn in the lead. Prakash Raj was signed on to reprise his role as the antagonist from the original.{{Cite web |date=2010-11-25 |title=Prakash Raj to play villain in Hindi once again |url=http://sify.com/movies/prakash-raj-to-play-villain-in-hindi-once-again-news-tamil-klyk1tdbgie.html |access-date=2022-01-20 |website= Sify|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101125142420/http://sify.com/movies/prakash-raj-to-play-villain-in-hindi-once-again-news-tamil-klyk1tdbgie.html |archive-date=25 November 2010 |url-status=dead}} In February 2011, Kajal Aggarwal was signed in as the female lead.{{Cite news|title=Ajay Devgn to romance South actress Kajal... - Times of India|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/hindi/bollywood/news/ajay-devgn-to-romance-south-actress-kajal-/articleshow/7500764.cms|access-date=2022-01-20|website=The Times of India|date=15 February 2011|language=en|archive-date=18 September 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180918012431/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/hindi/bollywood/news/Ajay-Devgn-to-romance-South-actress-Kajal-/articleshow/7500764.cms|url-status=live}} The movie was named "Singham" ({{Translation|Lion}}).

After the commercial success of Singham, Shetty announced that plans were being made to direct a sequel to Singham.{{Cite web|title=Hurry Singham 2|url=http://www.deccanchronicle.com/131015/entertainment-bollywood/article/hurry-singham-2|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029195656/http://www.deccanchronicle.com/131015/entertainment-bollywood/article/hurry-singham-2 |archive-date=29 October 2013 }} The movie was named Singham Returns.

The film received mixed reviews and just like its predecessor, Singham Returns was declared a 'super hit' at the box office collecting {{INRConvert|2,165.6975|m|year=2014}}.

Following Singham Returns' success, Shetty showed interest in remaking the Telugu film Temper (2015). He stated in an interview, "We have bought the rights of Temper but our film is not exactly a remake. We wanted to take four-five scenes from Temper but we thought it's better to buy the rights."{{Cite web|date=2017-12-07|title=Simmba first look: Ranveer Singh, Rohit Shetty film reminds you of Ram Lakhan, Singham|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/bollywood/simmba-poster-ranveer-singh-plays-a-quirky-cop-in-first-film-with-rohit-shetty/story-N3NkQhYb8wVrO8MxNNVm0K.html|access-date=2022-01-20|website=Hindustan Times|language=en|archive-date=3 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181203202706/https://www.hindustantimes.com/bollywood/simmba-poster-ranveer-singh-plays-a-quirky-cop-in-first-film-with-rohit-shetty/story-N3NkQhYb8wVrO8MxNNVm0K.html|url-status=live}} The film was named "Simmba" and Ranveer Singh was cast as Simmba, along with Sara Ali Khan for the female lead.
