Context
Why does this story matter?
Cirkus is an adaptation of William Shakespeare's play The Comedy Of Errors. Apart from Singh, the Rohit Shetty directorial features a host of other actors including Pooja Hegde, Jacqueline Fernandez, Varun Sharma, Tiku Talsania, Johnny Lever, Sanjay Mishra, and Vrajesh Hirjee in important roles. This film also marks Singh and Shetty's third collaboration after Simmba and Sooryavanshi, which had Singh playing an extended cameo.
Observation
What does the trailer show?
Singh plays dual roles in the movie. The trailer starts with a circus scene, where Singh's "Electric Man" is seen performing a stunt that goes hilariously wrong and he travels back in time to the '60s, where he is mistaken for his doppelganger. His romantic track with Hegde and Fernandez adds more to the streak of unforeseen circumstances and comical chaos.
Special mention
Deepika Padukone makes an electrifying appearance
While all the actors made their presence felt with their attention-arresting performance, Bollywood superstar Deepika Padukone made a surprise appearance toward the end. She is seen shaking a leg with Singh for an upbeat number and it has amplified the trailer's charm. Shot across Mumbai, Goa, and Ooty, the film has been co-produced by Shetty, Bhushan Kumar, and Reliance Entertainment.
