The Kingdom team, which included director Rahul Sankrityan and producer Mythri Naveen, reportedly discussed their admiration for Pawan Kalyan and even shared a few updates about their film. Sources say that Pawan encouraged the team and wished them luck, praising the scale and ambition of Kingdom, which is rumored to be set in the Vijayanagara Empire era.
Fans of both stars were quick to celebrate the moment online, calling it a “clash of charisma” and “a frame filled with power and promise.” Many also speculated whether the meeting hinted at a possible collaboration in the future—though no official word has been given.
Meanwhile, Ustaad Bhagat Singh, directed by Harish Shankar, continues to generate massive buzz. The film marks a reunion between the director and Pawan after the blockbuster Gabbar Singh and promises to be a high-octane patriotic drama.
With Kingdom slated for a 2025 release and Ustaad Bhagat Singh expected to hit theaters later this year, this meeting of two Tollywood giants has only intensified anticipation for both films.
