Sonakshi to play Suniel Shetty's daughter in Bosco Martis' Circus

Bosco Martis' directorial debut was under scanner since the leading lady of the film was not finalised. First, it was reported that Kangana Ranaut was approached for the movie.

Then Parineeti was rumoured to be a part of the film. Talking about it, a source stated to the daily, "The actress is also miffed because someone from the team gave out the news that she had signed the film when she had just been narrated the story.Pari wants her film announcements to be made only after she signs on the dotted line. YRF, her talent management company, is mapping her career and making sure that she signs the best films. The only film she's doing as of now is Meri Pyaari Bindu with Ayushmann Khurrana. The early newsbreak on Circus rattled her as she was still mulling over the script."

Now, a tabloid has reported that Sonakshi Sinha is finalised as the leading lady for the film. She will be seen playing the role of a trapeze artist in the movie. Talking about it, Bosco stated, "It's an ambitious, intense story with a larger-than-life set-up. I'm looking forward to filming with Sonakshi."

Suniel Shetty will play her father in Circus. A source close to the development of the film spoke about it stating, "While the supporting cast will consist of trained performers, the leads will train with gymnasts and acrobats to work on their stance and balance. There will be extensive action and dance sequences with fire and water acts."

Is Sooraj Pancholi still part of the movie?
