Pawan Kalyan’s long-delayed film, Ustad Bhagat Singh has finally locked its release date. The much-awaited Telugu action drama, directed by Harish Shankar, is set to hit the big screens on March 26, 2026, on the occasion of Sri Rama Navami.
Announcing the release date, Mythri Movie Makers shared a fresh poster featuring Pawan Kalyan standing as the Messiah. The production banner read, “Get ready to cheer, whistle and stomp your feet to celebrate our Ustad. This summer, the pairing of the power star and the cult Captain will take the box office by storm. #UstadBhagatSingh Grand releases worldwide on March 26, 2026. #UBSOnMarch26.”
With the release of Ustad Bhagat Singh on Ram Navami, the previously scheduled Ram Charan starrer Peddi has been postponed to avoid a direct clash at the box office. Peddie will be out on April 30, 2026.
For those unaware, Ustad Bhagat Singh is reportedly a remake of the Tamil film Theri starring Thalapathy Vijay. It was remade in Hindi as Baby John, starring Varun Dhawan in the lead role. However, the Telugu remake has undergone several significant changes to the story and screenplay over time. Apart from Pawan Kalyan, the film stars Raashi Khanna and Sreeleela as the two lead female actors. Rockstar Devi Sri Prasad has composed the music. The first single from the film, Dekh Lenge, was recently released, which received positive response.
Ustad Bhagat Singh has created tremendous excitement among the audiences as it is one of the first big releases of the Telugu film industry to be released in the summer of 2026. The film is expected to be a complete power-packed action entertainer. Directed by Harish Shankar, the film may do wonders at the box office, if it manages to garner favorable response. It will be interesting to see whether Ustad Bhagat Singh continues Pawan Kalyan’s winning streak at the box office after his previous success, They Call Him OG.
