Yunus Sajawal, writer of 'Cirkus', revealed that director Rohit Shetty made the Ranveer Singh-starrer movie so his crew members could earn during the COVID-19 lockdown. "Rohit said it won’t affect me if I don’t work for two years, but what about my unit," Sajawal added. "Every junior artist went through...vaccinations and they all were hired for four months," he stated.
