Initially slated to hit theatres on March 26, 2026, the film’s release date has now been advanced to March 19, 2026. This change comes after Toxic, starring Yash, was postponed to June 4, 2026.
With a gap opening up in the release calendar, the makers of Ustad Bhagat Singh decided to take advantage of the situation and preponed their film.
We at OTTplay Premium have also learned that Netflix has acquired the digital rights to the film for a record price. According to sources close to the unit, Netflix has reportedly paid a whopping ₹80 crore for the post-theatrical streaming rights, highlighting the strong market value of the Pawan Kalyan starrer.
The film marks the second collaboration between director Harish Shankar and Pawan Kalyan after the blockbuster Gabbar Singh which is currently streaming on OTTplay Premium.
In this entertainer, Pawan Kalyan will be seen playing a cop in a role designed purely for mass appeal and entertainment. There has been speculation that Ustad Bhagat Singh is an official remake of Theri.
However, Harish Shankar has dismissed these rumours, stating in an interview that Gabbar Singh loosely inspired Theri itself. He clarified that Ustad Bhagat Singh is not a remake and has its own original storyline.
The buzz surrounding the film has now reached the next level. Pawan Kalyan is yet to join the promotional campaign, but with the new release date locked, expectations have soared. After the success of his last film OG,, all eyes are now on this major summer release to see how it performs at the box office.
