Harish Shankar Reveals Pawan Kalyan’s Iconic Scene in Ustaad Bhagat Singh Inspired by Real-Life Incident
Among Pawan Kalyan’s highly anticipated films, OG leads the pack, with fans eagerly awaiting its release. Following that, Hari Hara Veera Mallu has also generated significant excitement, as it marks Pawan’s return to a historical drama. However, there is a slight dip in the buzz for Ustaad Bhagat Singh, largely due to multiple delays and the film’s remake factor.
In an exciting update from the Ustaad Bhagat Singh team, director Harish Shankar recently attended the pre-release event of Dragon in Telugu, where he dropped a major reveal about his upcoming film. During the event, he responded to a comment by Dragon director Ashwath Marimuthu, who had mentioned a powerful scene involving Pawan Kalyan sitting on top of a moving car. Harish Shankar chimed in, saying, “I’ve already designed a similar sequence in Ustaad Bhagat Singh, where Pawan Kalyan sir sits on top of a car. You can call this ‘Harish Leaks,’ just like ‘Chiru Leaks.’ This scene is going to resonate with fans.”
The sequence, in fact, draws direct inspiration from an iconic moment in Pawan Kalyan’s real life. The actor-politician once traveled on top of his car to meet the residents of Ippatam after the then-government tried to restrict him. The powerful visuals from that time went viral, and Harish Shankar is now recreating this unforgettable scene in Ustaad Bhagat Singh.
Known for making remakes his own by incorporating unique elements, Harish Shankar hopes to make a strong comeback after his last film, Mr. Bachchan, which didn’t perform well at the box office. With Ustaad Bhagat Singh being based on the Tamil film Theri, Harish aims to bring fresh energy to the story, and with this new revelation, the film is back in the spotlight, keeping fans excited for what’s to come.
