The action drama Mr. Bachchan, starring the versatile Ravi Teja, is set to make its digital debut on Netflix on September 12th. Despite a lukewarm reception at the box office, the official remake of Ajay Devgn’s classic hit Raid has secured a massive Rs 33 crore deal for its OTT rights.
The film, which bombed at the ticket windows, failed to connect with audiences due to unnecessary commercial elements and a prolonged love track that overshadowed the main story. However, the digital platform offers a new opportunity for Mr. Bachchan to find an audience and showcase its merits.
The film stars Ravi Teja in the lead role, reprising the role of the fearless tax officer played by Ajay Devgn in the original film. Bhagyashree Borse, who made her Telugu debut with Mr. Bachchan, plays the female lead. The film is produced by TG Vishwa Prasad of People Media Factory, and the music is composed by Mickey J. Meyer. With its OTT release, Mr. Bachchan will have a chance to reach a wider audience and potentially find a new appreciation. Fans of Ravi Teja and action-packed dramas can look forward to streaming the film on Netflix starting September 12th.
