The excitement around ‘Ustaad Bhagat Singh’ is at its peak as Pawan Kalyan returns to the big screen in a much-awaited mass entertainer. The Telugu film is slated to hit big screens on March 19, and the reservations for the film are going strong. Directed by Harish Shankar, the film has created strong pre-release hype, especially as it marks their reunion after more than a decade since ‘Gabbar Singh.’ With festive timing and soaring fan expectations, the spotlight is firmly on what the duo has promised this time.
Harish Shankar promises a lighter and fun side of the star
Speaking about the film with The Hollywood Reporter India, Harish Shankar said, “It has been quite a while since we have seen Pawan Kalyan Sir laughing on-screen. He has been doing serious and intense roles. This film offers the other side, which hasn’t been seen in a decade, I think.” He added, “He has a great sense of humour so you will see that, suave body language, lighter moments and laughs.” This promise has become one of the biggest highlights, raising curiosity among fans.
Director balances fan expectations with wider appeal
The filmmaker also spoke about the challenge of making a film that works for all sections of the audience. He said, “If you want a huge hit, the film should be watched by all kinds of audiences and all hero fans.” He further explained, “While keeping histrionics and fan satisfaction in mind, we also have the responsibility of taking the film to all kinds of audiences. That is challenging.” The film is expected to blend mass moments with family-friendly elements.
Pawan Kalyan’s dedication earns praise
Harish Shankar didn’t hold back while praising the actor’s commitment during the shoot. He said, “He managed his schedules so well. He previously gave us his timings, and we planned to shoot accordingly.” He added, “I would like to use this interview to thank him once again because he took on extreme pressure and worked so hard.”With such dedication and a strong promise from the director, ‘Ustaad Bhagat Singh’ is shaping up to be a much-awaited festive entertainer. Pawan Kalyan’s film has reportedly earned over Rs 4 crore from advance sales, according to Sacnilk, and the film is likely to be the actor’s best opener in recent times.
