Ustaad Bhagat Singh, starring Pawan Kalyan and directed by Harish Shankar, is just three days away from release, and the film’s ticket bookings have opened in almost all territories except the biggest territory, Nizam (Telangana).
Why Are Telangana Bookings Delayed?
The reason is that the team has applied for permission to screen special shows in Nizam, similar to Andhra Pradesh, where shows are planned to start from 4 AM. However, the government order (GO) approval has not yet come, which is delaying the ticket bookings.
The team of Ustaad Bhagat Singh is expecting the approval to arrive tomorrow, after which the Telangana bookings will open immediately. But the team must remember not to hold bookings for too long if there is a delay in approvals.
Lessons From The Raja Saab Debacle
A similar delay caused significant losses for Prabhas’ The Raja Saab, which was also handled by the same distribution office, Mythri. The delayed bookings affected the film’s opening momentum, making early ticket sales sluggish.
With Ustaad Bhagat Singh positioned as a major release for Pawan Kalyan, the team needs to act quickly. Fans have been eagerly waiting for the Ustaad Bhagat Singh release, and any further booking delays could dampen the opening day excitement. Hence, a quick decision by tomorrow is crucial to ensure maximum box office potential.
