South sensation and Telugu cinema's "Power Star" Pawan Kalyan's upcoming film Ustaad Bhagat Singh has been grabbing headlines for a long time now. Announced in 2021, the project has generated high anticipation, largely due to the promised on-screen chemistry between Kalyan and Sreeleela in this upcoming politically charged narrative. After tantalizing fans with glimpses of the film's universe through posters, the makers have finally announced that the teaser will be unveiled on Tuesday.

Rumors: Is the film a remake of Vijay's 'Theri'?
Since the project's announcement, rumors have been swirling that Ustaad Bhagat Singh might be a remake of Thalapathy Vijay's 2016 Tamil film Theri, starring Samantha Ruth Prabhu. However, as the film's storyline remains under wraps, there is still no confirmation about it being a remake. In both films, the protagonist portrays a cop. Separately, in Hindi cinema, Varun Dhawan's upcoming actioner Baby John, too, is a remake of Theri.
