2026 didn’t start on a pleasant note for Sreeleela as Parasakthi turned out to be a major disappointment at the Indian box office. The actress has come a long way in landing big projects, but unfortunately, most of those films have tanked. Now, all hopes are pinned on her upcoming biggie, Ustaad Bhagat Singh, which features Pawan Kalyan in the lead role. Despite competition from Dhurandhar 2, it is expected to earn strong numbers on day 1.
Ustaad Bhagat Singh is likely to fetch strong numbers on day 1
The upcoming Telugu action thriller is set to hit theaters on March 19. The buzz isn’t on the expected lines, but it is likely to open with strong numbers. Considering the demand for Dhurandhar 2 in the Telugu states (Andhra Pradesh and Telangana), it will take a dent, but it is still expected to cross 40 crore in net collections on day 1.
The trailer for Ustaad Bhagat Singh will release on March 14, and if it turns out to be good, the film’s opening-day potential will increase. Even with a decent trailer cut, 40 crore net looks achievable at the Indian box office on day 1. With this, the film has a chance to register the biggest ever opening for Sreeleela.
