9th August 2014: At a star-studded event today, Police Watches,
licensed exclusively by Titan Company in India, launched its special edition collection of timepieces inspired by
Bajirao Singham, the lead character of the blockbuster SINGHAM Returns.

Bollywood movie Singham Returns.
The special edition Singham collection from Police

true to its name and comprises a range of watches for those who are
bold enough to follow their own rules and like to wear their personality
on their wrist. A confluence of classic and

classical textured leather. Like

bold and larger-than-life attitude is much suited to the brand – it
goes against the stereotype. We are very excited to be the fashion time
partner for Singham Returns.”

Director Rohit Shetty expressed his enthusiasm to be associated with a brand like Police. “Singham and
Singham Returns are movies that are very close to my heart. I am
delighted to have Police watches as the fashion time partner for Singham
Returns as there is such a unique connect. These special edition
watches represent everything that Bajirao Singham
stands for – they are unique, unconventional and an exceptionally
designed collection”, he said.
Bollywood
star Ajay Devgn, the protagonist of the movie, was equally elated. “It
is an honour to have a collection of Police watches created especially
for my character in the movie. The watches are a reflection of Bajirao
Singham, standing out of the crowd and unabashed. Police as a brand is
iconic in the fashion space and this unique collection is for someone
like me, who loves to wear their personality
on their wrist.”
