Pawan Kalyan's 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh' has been preponed to March 19, 2026, for an Ugadi release. This new date sets up a box office clash with Ranveer Singh's 'Dhurandhar 2'. The film is an adaptation of the Tamil movie 'Theri'.
Ustaad Bhagat Singh gets new release date
Just a day after the makers of Geetu Mohandas and Yash's Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups announced that the action thriller has been postponed due to the US-Israel-Iran conflict, the makers of 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh' have announced a new release date. The Pawan Kalyan-starrer will now arrive in theatres earlier than planned. On Thursday, the makers took to their X account to share that the film has been moved from March 26 to March 19, 2026. The new date falls on the festival of Ugadi. The film will now clash with Aditya Dhar's 'Dhurandhar 2', which stars Ranveer Singh.
