\u201cUstaad Bhagat Singh is a family film\u2026 everyone will enjoy it\u2026 you will see vintage Power Star\u201d: Actress Raashii Khanna<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

After the sensational success of Gabbar Singh, Power Star Pawan Kalyan and Cult Captain Harish Shankar have teamed up once again for the film Ustaad Bhagat Singh. The movie is being produced prestigiously under the banner of Mythri Movie Makers by Naveen Yerneni and Yalamanchili Ravi Shankar.<\/span><\/p>\n

The film stars Raashii Khanna and Sreeleela as the female leads. Music is composed by Devi Sri Prasad, while the background score is handled by S. Thaman.<\/span><\/p>\n

The songs, teaser, and trailer released so far have received a tremendous response and created huge expectations for the film. With expectations soaring high, Ustaad Bhagat Singh is set to release in theatres on March 19, coinciding with Ugadi.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this context, actress Raashii Khanna recently interacted with the media and shared several insights about the film.<\/span><\/p>\n

How is life for you right now? How did you come on board for this project?<\/span><\/p>\n

My life is very busy right now. To be honest, the moment I heard that it was Pawan Kalyan Garu\u2019s film, I immediately said yes with great excitement\u2014even before listening to the story.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ever since I did my first film, I had heard a lot about his stardom and the phenomenon called Pawanism. From then on, I wished to act with him at least once. With Ustaad Bhagat Singh, that dream has come true.<\/span><\/p>\n

What kind of role are you playing in this film?<\/span><\/p>\n

My character\u2019s name is Shloka. She is a very modern girl. In this film, every character has importance, and my role also has a strong characterization.<\/span><\/p>\n

I have a mass song in the film. Since I love dancing, I really enjoyed shooting for that song.<\/span><\/p>\n

How was your experience working with Pawan Kalyan?<\/span><\/p>\n

Pawan Garu is a very simple person. He is always seen reading books. There is an innocence about him that is hard to explain.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the first day itself, he asked me, \u201cDid you always want to become an actress?\u201d I told him that I actually wanted to become an IAS officer.<\/span><\/p>\n

He speaks very little, but every word he says carries value. He encouraged me to do public service as well. Pawan Garu always thinks about the people.<\/span><\/p>\n

I learned a lot about humanity from him.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the Ustaad Bhagat Singh event, when I looked at his fans from the stage, it felt like they were worshipping him like a god.<\/span><\/p>\n

What would you say about director Harish Shankar?<\/span><\/p>\n

Harish Shankar Garu is very smart and understands the pulse of the mass audience extremely well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Usually, a shoot that takes 120 days was completed by him in just 40 days. He worked tirelessly for the film, even sacrificing sleep.<\/span><\/p>\n

During the shoot, he would often write punch dialogues right on the set. He has a lot of patience, and I learned a great deal from his dedication to cinema.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Did you feel your screen space might reduce since there are two heroines (you and Sreeleela)?<\/span><\/p>\n

We actually don\u2019t have scenes together. Each character has its own space and importance. My role also has good variations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since you had to work according to Pawan Kalyan\u2019s dates, was it difficult to manage schedules?<\/span><\/p>\n

Harish Garu had already told me that Pawan Kalyan Garu\u2019s schedules could be unpredictable. I told him I would adjust accordingly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sometimes we even worked 24-hour shifts without distinguishing between day and night.<\/span><\/p>\n

How was it working with Mythri Movie Makers?<\/span><\/p>\n

They are producers who put their heart and soul into films. They never compromise on the budget and give complete freedom to the director.<\/span><\/p>\n

The working environment in the Mythri banner is excellent. I hope to do more films with them in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n

What can audiences expect from Ustaad Bhagat Singh?<\/span><\/p>\n

Just like Gabbar Singh, this film will also be very entertaining. It is a family film that everyone can watch together in theatres.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since it is releasing during the Ugadi festival, I believe audiences will really enjoy it. Most importantly, you will get to see vintage Pawan Kalyan Garu on screen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can you tell us about your upcoming projects?<\/span><\/p>\n

Currently, I am working on a Hindi film with Akshay Kumar and also doing Farzi Season 2.<\/span><\/p>\n

I am also acting in an Amazon series where I play a Punjabi police officer, and all my dialogues are in Punjabi.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Tamil, I am doing a film titled Rowdy & Co. In Telugu as well, I am currently listening to a few scripts.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
