Ustaad Bhagat Singh’ Opens at Rs 31.5 Crore in India, Day-Two Collections Slide on Box-Office Clash

Trade data points to a sharp day-two slide following a Rs 31.5 crore India opening.

Overview

  • - Industry tracker estimates put day two at about Rs 9.25 crore in India, taking the domestic total to roughly Rs 44 crore.
  • - Reviews and audience feedback skew divided, with praise for Pawan Kalyan’s screen presence and action contrasted with criticism of dated writing and pacing.
  • - The same-day release of Dhurandhar: The Revenge has reduced screen share and pressured occupancy, particularly outside core Telugu markets.
  • - Netflix holds the post-theatrical streaming rights, with the makers indicating a five-week theatrical window and an expected late-April debut around April 24.
  • - Producer Naveen Yerneni says Pawan Kalyan accepted only a nominal advance with no further salary, though a separate trade report claims he was paid about Rs 25 crore.
