The great Russian Bombay circus

As decided, three of us -- I, Sabu and Ranjit Singh went to see the great Russian Bombay circus today. I was very excited. The last time I saw a circus was in my childhood. We reached the Pradarshan Maidan at 7:00 p.m., where the great circus has put up its tent. We bought three tickets of dress circle for Rs 300. With great hopes, we entered into the circus and took our seats in the third row from the front. The audience consisted of around 150 people, majority of whom were middle aged guys. And, as Ranjit suggested their real motive was to see something else. And, they were not disappointed. The circus had some beautiful Russian babes in flimsy costumes. Well, coming to the performances, I really liked some of the items performed by the Russian artists. However, overall, the circus was not that great as suggested by its name. Some of the Indian artists were young children. I wonder whether it's legal to have such young kids performing in the circus. We came to the conclusion why circus has no future in India. There were no innovations and the Indian artists performed the same age old stuff. Also, the ban on using animals in circus has taken its toll. However, I found horses, camels, elephant and dogs performing in the circus. Are they legally allowed? Nevertheless, going to the circus was an experience and all three of us were happy to get a chance to revisit our childhood.
