So, when the filmmaker was asked which was the craziest day on shoot during an exclusive video chat with Bollywood Hungama, he was quick to say, “Every day. Not a single day was like a normal day. Every day was a crazy day.” Elaborating further, Shetty said, “First of all, we all were going through the pandemic. There was COVID at its peak. And then (while pointing to the cast of the film), I had this bunch of people with me; positive people and young people. They are a crazy bunch.”

Following this, Ranveer Singh, the leading man of Cirkus, said that Shetty was the first filmmaker to get a film rolling when the COVID-19 pandemic was at its peak.

Interestingly, it was Shetty’s Akshay Kumar-starrer Sooryavanshi which was the first big film to release in theatres during 2021 Diwali period. The cop movie became a blockbuster and it paved the way for other big films to start getting released in cinema halls.

For those not in the know, Cirkus is an adaptation of the legendary William Shakespeare’s comedy play The Comedy Of Errors. The film is all set to release in cinemas on December 23.
