Rohit Shetty, the director of Ranveer Singh's next movie Cirkus, is getting ready for it to hit theatres. After Simmba and Sooryavanshi, Ranveer now collaborates with Rohit Shetty on a comedy movie. He is also making his debut as a double actor and as a leading man in a straight-up comedy. He expressed his gratitude to Rohit Shetty for giving him the chance to work on Cirkus because he had always wanted to do a full-length comedy movie.
Ranveer Singh revealed that working on Rohit Shetty's movies has helped him reach milestone after milestone. By taking on a double role in a comedic picture after first playing a cop in Simmba. He said, “I’m very grateful to Rohit Shetty for giving me these opportunities. Out-and-out comedy for the first time- something I have wanted to do for so many years, and I have been very vocal about it for at least 4 or 5 years before I got the opportunity. I just want to do a balls-out comedy- slapstick, situational, insult, humour, all rolled into one. So it was a dream come true for me. First time in and as larger-than-life action hero cop character and now first-time comedy and hopefully the first of many”.
“When we started working on the script and we decided okay let us go out, let somebody take the risk. Ranveer ko khaali maine bola ki mujhe lag raha hai, from this date we will start shooting the film. He didn't know what the script was. And he blocked ki haa chalo karte hain. Later on, after 3 months, he came to know what film it is”, stated Rohit Shetty.
Ranveer also discussed the difficulties of performing two roles. He said, “It was slightly more challenging kyunki it's a comedy of errors and it's about confusion so people have to confuse the two together. So you have to tread a very fine balance. But ultimately it's the director's medium. Nobody makes these movies better than him".
Sanjay Mishra, Jacqueline Fernandez, Pooja Hegde, Siddhartha Jadhav, Johnny Lever, Vrajesh Hirjee, Vijay Patkar, Sulbha Arya, Mukesh Tiwari, Anil Charanjeett, Ashwini Kalsekar, and Murli Sharma are among the cast members of Cirkus. It will have a global theatrical debut on December 23, 2022.
