Ustaad Bhagat Singh has ended its theatrical run on a disappointing note, emerging as a major box office failure. Even the fans did not like the film.
Despite massive expectations and pre-release hype, the Pawan Kalyan starrer failed to even cross the Rs 100 crore gross mark, which is considered underwhelming for a film of his stature.
Directed by Harish Shankar, the film was aggressively promoted, raising expectations among fans and trade circles. However, poor word of mouth and lack of engaging content impacted its overall performance.
As per trade estimates, the makers and distributors are expected to incur losses close to Rs 80 crore, making it one of the biggest setbacks in recent times for all involved.
