MUMBAI: One of the most commercially successful filmmakers in the Hindi film industry, Rohit Shetty says he takes failures in stride and learns from them. The director, known for blockbuster franchise "Golmaal" and cop movies "Singham", "Simmba" among others, had a lacklustre outing with his last film "Cirkus", based on William Shakespeare's popular play The Comedy of Errors.
Starring Ranveer Singh, Varun Sharma, Pooja Hegde and Jacqueline Fernandez, the film opened in December 2022 to underwhelming response from the audiences as well as the critics.
"Cirkus" is not his first film to fail at the box office, and the director said he has a realistic approach that it won't be the last. "My first film 'Zameen' had not done well, Sunday' had not done well and Dilwale' had not done well. This is the fourth time. My target is to make 25 to 30 films and out of this, three-four will be like Cirkus again'," he added.
The filmmaker, set to complete 20 years in the movies, said he is grateful to the audience for accepting him. It has been a great and fabulous journey. When he started with his first film Zameen or his second film Golmaal, he never thought that he would reach here and that his films would become a brand.
"I never thought I would be the first one to start a universe (cop universe) in this country. I never thought I would be hosting a TV show like "Khatron Ke Khiladi". I have put my heart, energy, and love in everything that I have done. I look forward to the coming 20 years," he added.
Shetty is currently awaiting the premiere of the 13th season of "Khatron Ke Khiladi". The stunt-based reality show features celebrities facing their worst fears. With every season, the show is getting "bigger and better", said Shetty, who is returning as a host for the eighth time.
