Ustaad Bhagat Singh teaser lands in political trouble.Andhra Pradesh has already shifted into election mode following the release of the election schedule. The state is gearing up for elections to be held in a single phase for both MLA and MP segments on May 13th. The Election Mode Of Conduct is already in effect.
Recently, the makers of 'Ustad Bhagat Singh' unveiled a powerful teaser, featuring Pawan Kalyan as a formidable cop, which received a positive response from fans. However, the film may encounter issues and need to seek permission from the Election Commission (EC), as certain permissions are required for any campaign during the Code of Conduct.
During a press briefing, Andhra Pradesh Chief Election Officer Mukesh Kumar Meena was asked about the teaser but stated that he hadn't seen it and therefore couldn't comment. He emphasized the need to seek permission for campaigns under the Code of Conduct. He mentioned that after reviewing the teaser, a decision would be made on whether it contains political content.
The teaser featured a dialogue about a glass getting sharper as it breaks, a reference to the party's election symbol, the Glass Tumbler. This clip was widely shared on social media by fans. Pawan Kalyan mentioned that he delivered the dialogue under pressure from director Harish Shankar, as he is not inclined towards such dialogues. However, the Election Official reiterated the need for permission if the content is political, indicating potential challenges for Janasena in obtaining clearance.
