Ranveer Singh on Cirkus director: Rohit sir was itching to shoot action sequence

Ranveer Singh and Rohit Shetty

You can't keep filmmaker Rohit Shetty from extravagant action scenes for too long.

On Tuesday, the director returned to form as he reunited with his Simmba (2018) actor Ranveer Singh for a noodle brand commercial. From cars blowing up to gravity-defying stunts, Shetty incorporated his signature moves in the ad that was shot over a day at Mehboob Studios in Bandra.

"We were delighted to return to shooting high-octane action. Rohit sir was joking that since a long time, he had been itching to shoot an elaborate action sequence, complete with cars blowing up and guns being fired. I shared his sentiment," says Singh, always game for a round of thrills.

Having previously shot the 2018 cop caper and currently filming Cirkus with Shetty, the actor is well-aware of his penchant for adrenaline-pumping stunts that leave an impact on the audience. "The last time we shot action together was during the climax of Sooryavanshi [where Singh makes a cameo]. Bahut time se action ka keeda kaat raha tha hum dono ko!"
