Filmmaker Rohit Shetty Opens Up On The Box Office Failure Of Ranveer Singh-Fronted 'Cirkus'

Mumbai, July 15 - Filmmaker Rohit Shetty takes the blame on himself for the box office failure of the comedy caper "Cirkus" starring Ranveer Singh in a double role. Released in December last year, the movie failed miserably to gross just around 60 crores, becoming the lowest-grossing film of Shetty since "All The Best" (2009) at the worldwide box office. ## During a recent interview with India Today, the maverick filmmaker said that every success and failure of his movies belongs to him. "I make sure to surround myself with people who are honest with me. So, when a film doesn't do well, I know it. Hence, I have always believed that both my successes and failures are mine. There is no point shying away from it", he said.## "When a 'Singham' or a 'Golmaal' did well, that was also mine, so when a 'Zameen' (2003), a 'Dilwale' or a 'Cirkus' failed, that was also mine. I don't see a point in blaming anything else", Shetty added.## The "Singham" director further said that "Cirkus" was made during the pandemic for the workers so that they can earn their livelihood. Shetty's next theatrical release is the highly-anticipated third installment of the "Singham" franchise starring Ajay Devgn which is due to start filming next month and be released during Independence Day weekend 2024.## Shetty promises to make a solid comeback with "Singham Again". "The same audience made 'Sooryanshi' a blockbuster despite a 50% occupancy, and if it didn't work for 'Cirkus', I must take ownership of failures as well. That's not to say that I won't bounce back with the 'Singham' franchise again or 'Golmaal' or any other film, and I might make 'Cirkus' again, too". ## Meanwhile, Rohit Shetty is currently busy with the promotion of his hosted daredevil show "Khathron Ke Khiladi 13" which premiers on July 15 on Colors TV. Shetty also has his digital debut series "Indian Police Force" starring Siddharth Malhotra. It will premiere on Amazon Prime Video later this year.## Stay tuned...

Mumbai, July 13 - The sequel to filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala's directorial debut "Kick" fronted by Salman Khan has been in development for a long time. It was officially announced in 2020, but due to the covid-19 pandemic, the production got delayed. ## Sajid Nadiadwala, who is basking on the success of "Satyaprem Ki Katha" starring Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani, finally breaks his silence and opens up on the much-awaited action-comedy sequel and confirmed that he will be returning to direct it. The filmmaker said that the script is ready but they are waiting for the right time to take "Kick 2" on floors, hence the production is getting delayed.## "The subject is there on paper, it's completely written but needs time. We need a bigger scale and a better time for its release. We need to have cinema consumption back in fashion for us to make Kick. Once we are back to normal, I will be ready to take Kick 2 on floors", the filmmaker said in an interview with Pinkvilla.## Nadiadwala also said that Salman Khan has heard the script and now, all they need is the right time and the excitement of the audience to come back for the movie so they can plan things accordingly. "We can't be complacent and we have to provide a great cinematic experience (to the audience). We need to work very hard to give value for not just their money but also their time", he added.## Meanwhile, Nadiadwala is currently gearing up for the release of "Bawaal" starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor. The movie will have a direct-to-digital release via Amazon Prime Video on July 21. Apart from this, Sajid's second collaboration with Kartik Aaryan and director Kabir Singh, "Chandu Champion" recently went on floors and it will have a theatrical release in June next year. ## Stay tuned...

Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao return to reprise their roles along with Pankaj Tripti, Aparshakti Khurrana, and Abhishek Banerjee from the first movie. ## The makers announced the commencement of the shoot today with a twist in the plot of "Stree 2".

Raj & D.K., who wrote the screenplay of the first film, are not a part of the movie. The film is a part of Maddock Films' horror-comedy universe which kicked off with "Stree" (2018), followed by "Roohi" (2021) and "Bhediya" (2022).

The plans are to make "Stree 2" a bigger cinematic adventure than the first part which was itself hugely successful and got praise from critics.## "Stree 2" will release on August 31, 2024, worldwide.## Ek baar phir चंदेरी में फैला aatank !😱स्त्री २ filming begins!Aa rahi hai woh- August 2024!@ShraddhaKapoor @RajkummarRao #PankajTripathi @nowitsabhi @Aparshakti @amarkaushik #DineshVijan #JyotiDeshpande #NirenBhatt @sharadakarki #PoojaVijan @maddockfilms @jiostudios… pic.twitter.com/qhZyCBHdLh— Maddockfilms (@MaddockFilms) July 11, 2023 ## Stay tuned...
