Ustaad Better Than Gabbar Singh? What’s Harish Shankar Opinion?

On one hand, Ustad Bhagat Singh is turning out to be one of the biggest disasters in Pawan Kalyan’s career, but on the other hand, the team has started to consistently promote the film.

When asked to choose between Gabbar Singh and Ustaad Bhagat Singh, director Harish Shankar gave a clear and confident answer. He said Ustaad Bhagat Singh, definitely, adding that he sees himself as a more mature and evolved writer in this film.

This is an interesting statement, especially because Gabbar Singh, starring Pawan Kalyan, was a massive blockbuster and remains one of the most iconic commercial entertainers in Telugu cinema. It established Harish Shankar as a top mass director and created a lasting impact with its dialogues, characterization, and energy.

However, with Ustaad Bhagat Singh, Harish Shankar seems to be aiming for something beyond just mass appeal. His comment suggests that the writing will have more depth, refinement, and a broader emotional or thematic range compared to his earlier work.

But the hard effect here is that the film got out rightly rejected by the common audience, and it is turning out to be one of the biggest loss venture for any production house in recent years.

Fans are now curious to see how this “more mature writer” reflects on screen, especially with Pawan Kalyan returning in a powerful role. Expectations are naturally high, as audiences will inevitably compare it with the cult status of Gabbar Singh.
