The film received mixed reviews
The box office numbers have been distributed online while the public reaction continues to be strong.One commenter said: “An absolutely dated commercial animator! A commercial film like this doesn’t necessarily need to break the bank, but it needs at least some freshness. This feels dated from start to finish. Some of the quotables work, but the film lacks flow, feeling like a compilation of commercial scenes. Thaman tries to soar with his BGM, but it has little scope. PK tries for a bit, but this one has lost its trademark energy.”At the same time, others appreciated the film’s mass entertainment value. Another user wrote, “#UstaadBhagatSingh – A satisfying and romantic mass action entertainer. Though the story follows a familiar path, the director deserves credit for keeping the audience engaged throughout.”A strong opening weekend has given him a good foundation. However, the real test begins now, as word of mouth is mixed.The film also features Raashii Khanna, Sreeleela and R. Parthiban in key roles and the impressive opening collections are mainly due to Pawan Kalyan’s lead role.NOTE: The box office numbers and data in this article are compiled from various public and industry sources.
