The upcoming comedy film directed by Rohit Shetty features Ranveer Singh playing a double role for the first time in his career, along with Pooja Hegde and Jacqueline Fernandez as female leads. It is the official adaptation of the 1982 movie Angoor which was based on William Shakespeare’s play The Comedy of Errors and is scheduled for theatrically release on 15 July 2022. The highly anticipated film is expected to garner huge box office success, going by Shetty’s previous track record of blockbusters like Chennai Express, Dilwale, Bol Bachchan and of course Singham and Golmal series. The film will see the acrobatics as seen in the 90s circus. The entire film was shot for 90 days. A major part of the shoot has been given to the circus aspect. A source close to the film said, “This time, the comedy has been kept serious and not loud or buffoonery. The lives of those working in the circus company have been used as metaphors. He is used as a metaphor throughout the film of how life juggles with gymnasts and acrobats working in a circus company just like a common man also keeps doing feats all his life. Wherever he gets stuck, the comedy continues to happen. Along with the main lead characters in the film, this metaphor is also present throughout the film as a sub-plot.”
