Candyman Jumbo Russian Circus


Wanna c a man with 4 legs???
Wanna c elephant playing Twenty-20 cricket match???
Wanna watch skywalk???

Well there are many more exciting things.

Venue: Bangalore Palace Grounds
Last date : 10th Feb
Shows: 1 , 4 and 7 p.m.

Presented by Candyman , Jumbo Russian Circus is the place where u get to see many stunning performances by various artists hailing from different parts of the World.

Well i was very happy when i came out . It was really a different world, felt i was in a magic world. Animals and birds performing different actions. Men n Women looked like fairies who performed so well that it was not possible to believe that it was happening in real.

There was complete entertainment for about 2 hours. It is very difficult for me to remember all the names of the performers.
The best part of the show was the twenty - 20 Cricket match played by Elephants and little jokers. The elephant hit fours and sixes just like Yuvaraj Singh. But it was depressed at the end as it could not complete its fifty. It moves to a beer bar. Drinks out 90. Then just a drunkard breaks tables n stools to express its depression. It faints ultimately . A Big elephant enters as a doctor,injects the drunk cricketer and advises the ill-effects of Drinking. There is a moral by the elephant to the entire crowd "Drinking Ruins Life ".

One thing made me really proud. Mr.Anthony is only the Kannadiga in the Circus troup. He rode a very smallest bicycle which is 68 years old. He does a balancing stunt on a pendulum with a single wheeled cycle.

I loved the Dog Show there. Dalmatians, Pamoranians,German Shepherds were really cute. The dangerous and most exciting were sky walk,bike riding where one of the three riders was a lady, and Satin Saree Dance by Shiny.

The crowd went mad when there was fire dance performance to the Hindi song "Jhalak Dikh la Ja". He was really outstanding performer.

One extra thing i saw that was not exciting but scary was a hippopotamus with its mouth widely opened. There were Cute White Macaws that bicycled.Camels were not very good.

Well ,i feel sad that i could not really remember all the performances. Each and every stunt was different, unique in its own way. A feast to the eyes.

So I request everyone to please visit the circus. Plan for the Circus instead of a movie this week end and really encourage those hard working performers. They are really talented , have taken a great risk to entertain us.

Well no offense to all those who like circus... but it seems a bit kiddish to me.... i for one think that hippos, elephants and other creatures look good in the wild and not wearing clothes like men... Well to those who enjoy it... well good for you... but i would rather spend a day in wild life sanctuary than circus... I do respect the efforts that the performers put in but some how i am not a circus person...

Yes, everyone knows animals circus are quite different from other circus, Obviously to see the games & other tricks done by lovely animals would be more exciting with lovely friends that too with children would be more fun as you enjoyed on that event. I think people whoever involved more in work with pressure, should go in the weekends. If people went they will get some peace of mind with excitement as children get. I think everyone should attend these type of events at least once in a month rather than to go somewhere!

Good post.

About the circus: I liked the idea of elephants playing cricket and getting depressed and opting to drinking.

I did not like the song torture of himesh reshammiyas jhalak dikh la ja. Ooh..the animals must have got mad!

Points to be noted:
Should one visit a circus seeing the animals are made jokers to people. What about animal rights?
1. One should go and watch so that the animals are fed from the money. The animals can no longer feed themselves as they are used to domestication.
2. Animals shud be let out in the forest after activists rescue them from the circus owners.

Fun is good, not in the expense of one's misert
