Director Harish Shankar’s commanding influence is a well-established fact. He is frank and forthright. When netizens go out of control or become impatient, he promptly blocks them on X.
His friction with a segment of Pawan Kalyan’s fanbase led to a degree of online hostility in recent years, particularly after the announcement of Ustaad Bhagat Singh. To filter out the noise, the Gabbar Singh maker opted to block several accounts. He had no option but to shut out the digital cacophony. The Gaddalakonda Ganesh director had no personal animosity with any of the fans of Power Star.
With Ustaad Bhagat Singh's release fast approaching, Harish Shankar is now unblocking them upon their request. As the exhilarating promotional material (particularly Dekhlenge Saala) for UBS begins to dominate social media, the initial skepticism has been replaced by massive enthusiasm. Recognizing the quality of the work on display, many of those previously restricted fans reached out to mend fences. Showing his remarkable magnanimity, the Mirapakai maker didn't just unblock a few; he cleared the entire list.
Soon, the second song from Harish Shankar's Ustaad Bhagat Singh will be out. It's written by Chandrabose and is hero-centric. Raashi Khanna and Sreeleela have been cast as Pawan Kalyan's heroines in this Summer release.
