'Mr. Bachchan', the official remake of 'Raid' (2018; Hindi), stars Ravi Teja in the lead. The Harish Shankar-directorial, produced by People Media Factory, will head to Netflix on September 12. The mass action entertainer will stream in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada.
What is the film about? Bachchan (Ravi Teja) is an Income Tax official who is about to get married to Jikki, his girlfriend. Four days before his wedding, he is designated by his superior to raid the bungalow of a four-time MP named Muthyam Jaggaiah (Jagapathi Babu). The target of Bachchan and his team of sleuths is no pushover; he can wield enormous power and violently prevent him from succeeding. How Bachchan rises to the occasion and successfully executes the days-long raid is what the film is about. A high-stakes clash between a megalomaniac, certain of his impunity, and a sincere bureaucrat bound by duty, ensues.
'Mr. Bachchan' stars Jagapathi Babu as the main antagonist. Bhagyashri Borse is its heroine.
