Cirkus Review: Old Gags, Insufferable Jokes, Bad Acting - Ranveer Singh Starrer Is A Massive Wasted Opportunity
ABP NewsNew Delhi: 'The Bard of Avon' can never go wrong. After Kishore Kumar's 'Do Dooni Chaar' and Sanjeev Kumar's 'Angoor' and a few other forgettable adaptations, comes Rohit Shetty's 'Cirkus', featuring Ranveer Singh playing two sets of identical twins who are accidentally separated at birth. Coincidentally, the two pairs get adopted by two different sets of parents -- one Roy is deliberately paired with another Joy and the other Roy with the other Joy in Ooty and Bengaluru, respectively. And though the writers do their best to introduce characters, such as the mothers and girlfriends Mala and Bindu to add to the mix-ups, chaos and disorder, all we have are pathetic example of poor writing skills and excruciatingly unbearable situations, so much so that even the gifted Ranveer Singh can barely salvage the film. The only thing that works for the film is Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh's sudden impromptu jig to 'Current laga re'.
