Athiya Shetty and Sooraj Pancholi to REUNITE for Circus?

With Parineeti Chopra walking out of choreographer Bosco Martis’s Circus, Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty seem set for a reunion, if all goes well. The Shetty girl is in talks for the musical drama, and Sunil Shetty too is part of this film.

Circus features a baap-beti jodi’s troubled yet loving relationship. Also, if it works out, this would be the first time the real-life father-daughter pair would star in a film together. Now wouldn’t that be awesome?! We have seen real father-son relationships on screen with Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek, but it will be fun to now see a real Daughter-father on screen. Says a source, “Circus is the emotional story about a father and a daughter; both trapeze artists. Sunil has been selective in signing on films in the last few years, but he immediately said yes to this one.” The story spans a decade. It would be interesting to check out Sunil-Athiya’s screen presence.Scripting for Circus began a year ago and it revolves around the dying craze for the circus. “Sooraj and Athiya would be seen doing some daredevil acts and there is also a romantic track between the two,” adds the source.

The film rolls this December and will have action sequences and dance performances with fire and water acts. The film is being planned on a grand scale with international circus artists being flown down to be part of the film,” the source says.

Apart from Circus, Sooraj Pancholi has two other films lined up, he will be working alongside Ajay Devgn in a film by Remo Dsouza. This dance flick will soon be rolling! So we are going to see Sooraj perform some daredevil acts, and put on his dancing shoes! And wait, there’s more. He will be part of  a sports film base don soccer by Pierre Timmins who happens to be making his directorial debut with this one. He is reportedly set to lose 10 kgs for the role and is being trained by professionals daily.
