Dayaal,
who
spoke
with
emotional
overtones
in
the
film,
said
that
he
will
be
completing
the
film
after
sixty
days
of
hectic
schedule.
"Nearly
seventy
percent
of
the
shooting
will
be
done
inside
a
train.
I
had
to
toil
hard
to
get
the
required
permission
for
the
shoot.
The
story
starts
from
Mysore
station
and
ends
in
Bangalore
station.
I
have
taken
permission
from
Railway
authorities
to
shoot
the
film
in
Railway
station
and
tracks
in
Mysore,
Konkar
Railway
and
Railway
line
stretching
in
Sakleshpur
and
Subramanya
Ghat
section," said
Dayaal.
Dayaal
said
that
Circus
was
a
seven
year
dream
for
him
and
he
had
narrated
the
script
to
many
Kannada
film
producers
and
directors.
"I
had
even
briefed
the
subject
to
a
top
corporate
film.
They
had
even
agreed
to
make
the
film,
but
wanted
that
the
film's
script
should
be
changed
so
as
a
Big
Bus
could
be
used
as
an
alternative
to
train.
But
I
was
not
prepared
for
this
change
only
because
the
train
is
a
character
of
the
film,"
says
Dayaal.
Prominent
music
director
Emil,
who
achieved
big
success
in
Nanda
Nanditha,
is
the
