Powerstar Pawan Kalyan completed the shoot of Ustaad Bhagat Singh last year and the film has locked its arrival on March 26th. The film is directed by Harish Shankar and is produced by Mythri Movie Makers. Sreeleela and Rashi Khanna are the leading ladies and Devi Sri Prasad scored the music. Ustaad Bhagat Singh is one of the craziest releases among the summer charts of Telugu cinema. There are a lot of challenges too:
Remake Mark: Ustaad Bhagat Singh is the remake of Tamil film Theri. Harish Shankar has announced that there are a lot of changes done considering Pawan Kalyan. The audience should not get a feel of watching a remake. This is the biggest challenge for Harish Shankar.
Harish Shankar: The talented writer and director faced a huge setback with Mr Bachchan. The promotional content of Ustaad Bhagat Singh should be impressive and generate the needed buzz. There are usually a lot of trolls and memes made on Harish Shankar before the release of his films. He has to overcome this with the content.
Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic: A week before the release of Ustaad Bhagat Singh, Dhurandhar: The Revenge and Toxic are releasing across the country. If they are impressive, both these films will hold a decent number of screens in the Telugu states and a section will watch these films despite the release of Ustaad Bhagat Singh. The word of mouth for Ustaad Bhagat Singh has to be exceptional.
Outside Telugu States: Toxic is the film of Yash and this is his next release after KGF: Chapter 2. The film will be super strong in Karnataka and other South circles. On the other side, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is expected to hold well in the North Indian belt. Outside the Telugu states, Ustaad Bhagat Singh will have a tough time because of the stiff competition from other films.
Not Core Summer season: The exact summer holiday season starts during the last week of April and it would continue till the first week of June. Ustaad Bhagat Singh is releasing in the last week of March and the result of the film depends completely on the content. It is examination time for students.
Amid many challenges, Pawan Kalyan can drive the film if the content is impressive. For now, there are big expectations on Ustaad Bhagat Singh and the film is the first biggie of summer in Telugu cinema this year.
