Rohit Shetty, Ranveer Singh, Jacqueline Fernandes, Pooja Hegde, Varun Sharma, Ashwini Kalsekar, Sulbha Arya, Vrajesh Hirjee, Anil Charanjeet, Vijay Patkar, Siddharth Jadhav and Tiku Talsania grace 'The Kapil Sharma Show' to promote their upcoming film 'Cirkus'. Ranveer also added: "I have seen a hippopotamus in a circus! I am not even kidding, in the Rambo circus and Reclamation circus there used to be hippos. It used to be scary as they are aggressive creatures because if something goes wrong, they can be very dangerous." Furthermore, the 'Cirkus' filmmaker also talked about his movie and expressed his happiness on looking at Kapil's mother on the show.

Rohit Shetty said: "I am sure along with Kapil's mother and her friends, they are surely going to enjoy the film 'Cirkus'. We have tried our best to recreate the 60s era because we as filmmakers usually make films meant for the mass audience or the youngsters but this film is for all, especially for people at our home like our mothers, grandparents, uncles and aunts. We have tried experimenting with this and I have a strong feeling that everybody will love the film."
