Sharing his thoughts on the growing popularity of these films, Jaaved Jaaferi believes the concept works because it targets a wider audience with diverse tastes.“I guess we’re going back to the circus (laughs). You go to a circus and there’s a trapeze artist and there’s people riding the horses and then there’s pretty girls hanging in the air or twirling, and then there’s a clown and then there’s the animals. So I think we’re becoming that. The whole set theory is put into the audience, the character variations, and the actors being loved by the audience and the actors. It’s like a buffet, you know, rather than a la carte. I guess it works, it attracts a wider selection of audiences,” Showsha said in an interview with CNN-News18.
