Harish Shankar Likely to Team Up with A Young Hero After Ustaad Bhagat Singh

Director Harish Shankar is currently busy with Ustaad Bhagat Singh, starring Pawan Kalyan, which is being lined up for a summer release. So far, the makers have unveiled two promos and one song from the film. The first single, Dekhlenge Saala, received a very positive response, especially for Pawan Kalyan’s energetic screen presence and dance moves, further boosting expectations. Sreeleela and Raashi Khanna are playing the female leads, with Pawan Kalyan having wrapped up his portions long ago. Raashi Khanna also recently completed her shoot and shared the update on Instagram. The film’s music is being composed by Devi Sri Prasad.

Meanwhile, strong buzz is doing the rounds about Harish Shankar’s next project after Ustaad Bhagat Singh. As per industry talk, he is expected to direct a mass entertainer with Naga Chaitanya in the lead. Currently, Naga Chaitanya is occupied with Vrusha Karma, an adventure thriller directed by Karthik Dandu. Meenakshi Chaudhary plays the female lead in the film, portraying the role of an archaeologist. Vrusha Karma has generated solid expectations, especially given Karthik Dandu’s track record. The first look and the making video released by the team have further heightened anticipation.

The film is expected to wrap up and release by the end of summer, potentially freeing Naga Chaitanya by March. Coincidentally, Ustaad Bhagat Singh is also likely to be ready around the same time, which could allow Harish Shankar to move quickly into his next venture. Although there is no official confirmation yet, if this collaboration materializes, Akkineni fans can expect Naga Chaitanya to be seen in a full-fledged mass avatar under Harish Shankar’s direction.
