Pawan Kalyan's latest film, Ustaad Bhagat Singh, has had a disappointing start at the box office, grossing approximately ₹80 Cr worldwide across four days despite releasing during the Ugadi festival. The film's collections have declined with each passing day, raising concerns about its theatrical run.
The film's poor opening has been a major contributor to its underwhelming performance, with a first-day gross of around ₹50 Cr, which fell short of trade expectations. The Ugadi holiday dvantage failed to boost the film's numbers, and it witnessed a continuous downward trend throughout the extended weekend.
A comparison with Pawan Kalyan's previous release, OG, highlights the stark contrast in performance. OG had a sensational day 1 with over ₹140 Cr gross, while Ustaad Bhagat Singh hasn't achieved these figures even after four days at the box office.
The declining day-wise collections and Dhurandhar 2 storm have impacted the film's sustaining power at the box office, making it challenging for Ustaad Bhagat Singh to reach the ₹100 Cr milestone in its theatrical run. The disappointing performance has raised concerns about the film's future at the box office, and it remains to be seen if it can recover from this slow start. With the current trend, Ustaad Bhagat Singh's theatrical run looks uncertain.
