Mr Bachchan

Mr. Bachchan is a 2024 Indian Telugu-language romantic action drama film directed by Harish Shankar and jointly produced by T. G. Vishwa Prasad, Vivek Kuchibotla, Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Abhishek Pathak, and Kumar Mangat Pathak under People Media Factory, T-Series Films, and Panorama Studios. It stars Ravi Teja as the titular character, alongside Jagapathi Babu and Bhagyashri Borse (in her Telugu debut). The film is the official remake of the Hindi film Raid (2018), which itself was based on the real-life income tax raid conducted on Indian industrialist Sardar Inder Singh. It follows a suspended income tax officer who romances a young woman in his hometown and plans to marry her, only to have his suspension end. He is enlisted to raid the mansion of a local political figure. Mr. Bachchan was released on 15 August 2024 and was critically panned by critics and audiences. Owing to this, the film was trimmed by 13 minutes. It eventually emerged as a disaster at the box office, often considered as one of the well-known epitomes of box office bombs, in Tollywood pop culture.
