Ustaad Bhagat Singh Twitter review: 8 tweets you must read before watching Pawan Kalyan, Sreeleela and Raashii Khanna's Telugu action movie

Ustaad Bhagat Singh hit the theatres during the Ugadi festive window, drawing huge attention from fans and the Telugu film industry alike. Headlined by Pawan Kalyan, the film carries high expectations, especially after the actor’s last movie, Hari Hara Veera Mallu, received a lukewarm response. Directed by Harish Shankar and produced by Mythri Movie Makers, the film follows a fearless police officer who takes on powerful adversaries. The action entertainer also stars Sreeleela and Raashii Khanna in key roles.

Netizens review Ustaad Bhagat Singh

The film marks the much-awaited reunion of Pawan Kalyan and Harish Shankar after their 2012 blockbuster Gabbar Singh, which remains regarded as a landmark commercial success. Naturally, expectations were sky-high, and early audience reactions on X (formerly Twitter) have been mixed, with both excitement and criticism.




One viewer described the film as an outdated commercial entertainer, saying it lacked freshness despite having the usual mass elements. The user felt the story and screenplay seemed stitched together, even though a few elevated scenes managed to create an impact. They rated the film 2 out of 5.





In contrast, another user praised a particular mass scene, calling it one of the best-written sequences in recent times. The viewer highlighted the screenplay, powerful dialogues by Pawan Kalyan and the energetic background score by Thaman S, saying the moment gave them goosebumps.

A viewer from the United States shared a more positive reaction, saying the film had everything expected from a commercial entertainer: comedy, emotion, action, and dance. The user thanked Harish Shankar for delivering what they described as a blockbuster and rated the film a perfect 5 out of 5.




Another reaction pointed out that the second half was stronger than the first, with the film picking up pace after the interval. The viewer particularly appreciated how the narrative gained momentum in the latter portions.

Some viewers appreciated the film’s humour, noting that jokes built around Pawan Kalyan’s limited dancing abilities worked surprisingly well. According to the tweet, scenes featuring the actor performing popular songs in his own style added to the entertainment value.



One user highlighted the police station sequence in the second half, saying it started the latter portion of the film on a high note and showcased Pawan Kalyan’s aggression effectively.



Despite the criticism, several fans agreed that Pawan Kalyan’s screen presence and dialogue delivery remained a major highlight, even in scenes where the writing felt predictable.
