‘Cirkus’ movie review: Rohit Shetty, Ranveer Singh’s film is a reckless ruckus
The HinduRohit Shetty has been making his comedy of errors for a long time, but this time, the director who introduced us to a new Golmaal gets inspired by Shakespeare’s epic play and dusts off Gulzar’s Angoor to create a faded copy that is absolutely dull and listless. It is surprising because it is headlined by a live wire of actor Ranveer Singh in a double role and is surrounded by Rohit’s trusted tag team of comedians who excel in buffoonery. Cirkus Director: Rohit Shetty Cast: Ranveer Singh, Varun Sharma, Pooja Hegde and Jacqueline Fernandez Runtime: 139 minutes Storyline: Chaos ensues when two sets of identical twins, who got separated at birth, end up at a hill station at the same time Those who know Angoor would recall that it is about two sets of identical twins separated at birth. It is a script that is perhaps more suited for laidback situational humour, perked up by music and performances, than Rohit Shetty’s style of overwrought slapstick.
