Harish Shankar reacts to collections
Harish Shankar addressed the film’s performance during an interactive session. He attended the event along with lead actress Sreeleela.Responding to a fan, he said as quoted by 123 Telugu, “Among Gabbar Singh and Ustaad Bhagat Singh, my favorite is the latter because I can see a more mature writer in myself. Every filmmaker wants a solo release for their film, but due to the decision of my exhibitors and producers, we had to prepone the release. It was a big risk clashing with a monster like Dhurandhar 2.”He further added, “As said in the Bhagavad Gita, only effort is in our hands, not the result. I feel happy about the appreciation for the film. Ustaad Bhagat Singh might not have broken previous records and may have earned less revenue than other films. Not every movie can break records, and not every Friday can be ours. Content is only in our hands, but collections depend on factors like the release window, ticket hikes, and competition from other films.”
