Ustaad Bhagat Singh Final Box Office Collections: Pawan Kalyan’s mass actioner closes theatrical run at disappointing Rs 87 crore

Telugu film Ustaad Bhagat Singh has almost exhausted its theatrical run at the box office. The movie is taking its last few breaths, which means it won’t be able to stick to the cinemas post this week. The Pawan Kalyan starrer is looking to wind up its entire box office journey at just Rs. 87 crore at the worldwide box office. Directed by Harish Kalyan, the mass action drama fetched around Rs. 75 crore in India, while the overseas territories could contribute just USD 1.25 million, which is Rs. 12 crore gross.  The movie performed relatively better in its home state, where it fetched around Rs. 65 crore. Around Rs. 10 crore came from the rest of the Indian markets. That said, the movie turned out to be a big misfire.
