Who Needs “Ustaad” Success Badly?

The film “Ustaad Bhagat Singh” is arriving, and already, Pawan Kalyan’s fans are getting ready to witness the mass action avatar of their favourite hero in theatres. While the film will enjoy the red carpet for the first three days due to holidays like Ugadi and Ramzan, surely it needs to work big time in terms of scoring a blockbuster. Because the success of Ustaad is essential for some actors and technicians.

Whether the film succeeds or not, it doesn’t matter for Pawan Kalyan, because he will have films lined up. For both the heroines, Raashi Khanna and Sreeleela, this is important. Among the two, for Sreeleela, this is very important because none of the films has worked out for her in recent times. If she has to retain her stardom, she needs a hit badly. For Raashi, she has OTT projects like Farzi and other Hindi movies in hand, and this success would get her more films, but that won’t write off her career if it fails to click. And then, Harish Shankar needs the success badly because none of his previous films has worked out well, and to stay in the race during the arrival of young directors, he needs Ustaad badly.

On the other hand, songs of the film should click big time in theatres, such that Devi Sri Prasad will continue some authority. In recent times, other than Pushpa 2 that released a couple of years ago, the composer hasn’t seen a massive commercial success of his tunes in the first place. The likes of Thaman, Anirudh, and now AR Rahman, as well as Sai Abhyankar, are giving him a strong threat on the musical front.

With all these folks needing the success of Ustaad Bhagat Singh for multiple reasons, many are hoping that Harish Shankar will not disappoint them inside theatres. Bankrolled by Mythri Movie Makers, the film is hitting cinemas on March 19th, with early benefit shows in Andhra Pradesh and early morning shows in the state of Telangana.
