Ustaad Bhagat Singh Box Office Shutterdown: Pawan Kalyan's film Ustaad Bhagat Singh debuted in theatres on March 19 to a respectable reception at the box office amid fierce competition from Dhurandhar: The Revenge. However, the Telugu film failed to keep up the momentum despite the holiday window boost. In India, it fell short of reaching even Rs 100 crore. Sreeleela, Raashii Khanna, and R. Parthiban are among the ensemble cast members who play significant roles in the movie.
Ustaad Bhagat Singh minted Rs 96.67 crore gross (India: Rs 84.82 crore, Overseas: Rs 11.85 crore). It brought Rs 72.25 crore net earnings at the box office after 26 days, as per Sacnilk. The Telugu movie not only failed to live up to the hype but also couldn’t hold against Dhurandhar: The Revenge.
Ustaad Bhagat Singh is said to have been produced on a massive scale with an approximate expenditure of Rs 150 crore. It opened on a decent note, but things slowed down after the first weekend. The movie started to lose steam and only made Rs 2.90 crore on its first Monday (Day 4), compared to Rs 8.78 crore on the first Sunday. The earnings fell below Rs 1 crore in the second week. According to Sacnilk, the Telugu film brought in Rs 1 lakh on Day 26.
