![]() ![]() The lead actor tries hard - way too hard - and the effort shows. And the acting all around is consistently substandard. Its 'comic' gags are pathetically unfunny. The film's gaudy colour palette makes real backdrops look like painted ones. Old Hindi movie songs constitute the spine of the Cirkusbackground music. ![]() But with no real imagination on display, Cirkus demonstrates what is amiss with contemporary Hindi films that are aimed at giving a mass audience its money's worth. It makes a song and dance about the debt that it owes to comedy movies of yore. The film has one foot planted firmly in the past, which by itself is not such a bad thing. The only thing that is truly comical about Cirkus is its unmitigated ineptitude. It does neither the medium nor the genre any justice. It is a mind-numbing film that would have done the world a favour by not advancing beyond the script stage. The golmaal is that the vapid caper film goes round and round in circles as it recycles exceedingly trite tropes, shoves them into a garish and turgid package and leaves a bunch of actors led by the effervescent Ranveer Singh (in a double role) with no chance at all of rising above the muddle.
