A great amount of buzz was generated prior to the cinema debut of Ravi Teja’s ‘Mr Bachchan’ on August 15, 2024. The film was directed by Harish Shankar and was highly anticipated by the audience. Despite the efforts of the entire team, the movie did not perform well at the box office. Fans were excited about the picture, and hopes were high for it. However, the film did not perform successfully. Even though the movie could not live up to the hype when it was released in theaters, it is currently getting ready to make its premiere online in the hopes of gaining a second chance at success on the OTT platform.
Mr Bachchan OTT Release Date
Mr Bachchan is all set to premiere on Netflix on 12 September 2024.
The producers decided to hold special premieres on August 14, 2024, in order to avoid competing with Ram Pothineni’s Double Ismart. When it was finally released on August 15, 2024, the picture was met with a lackluster reception at the box office due to the “flop talk” that had been surrounding it.
Prior to the premiere of the movie, we at OTTplay disclosed that the producers, People Media Factory, had sold the OTT rights to Netflix for a staggering Rs 33 crore. This amount is the biggest amount ever paid for a Ravi Teja film. In light of the fact that the movie was a complete and utter failure, Netflix has made the decision to begin streaming the action drama within one month of its initial release.
When and Where to Watch Mr Bachchan

After working together on Shock and Mirapakay, Ravi Teja and Harish Shankar have now worked together on Mr. Bachchan, making this their third collaboration. Mr. Bachchan will be able to reach a larger audience as a result of its availability on OTT platforms.
It is a testament to the shifting environment of film distribution and consumption that an OTT service has quickly replaced traditional movie theaters. As the film industry continues to adapt, it will be interesting to see how Mr. Bachchan performs on Netflix and whether it can redeem itself after a dismal theatrical run.
Mr Bachchan Movie Story
Bachchan, also known as Anand, is a straight-laced income tax officer who has been suspended due to his constant honesty. Ravi Teja plays Bachchan. As soon as he gets back to his village, he falls in love with Jikki (Bhagyashree Borse), and she quickly returns his affections for her.
Bachchan is reinstated just as things are beginning to look better, and he is given the mission of conducting a raid on the residence of a major local figure named Mutyam Jaggaiah, who is played by Jagapathi Babu. The next thing that happens is a daring endeavor that puts Bachchan’s determination to the test and reveals several unforeseen hurdles and surprises.
Cast and crew of Mr Bachchan
There are a number of actors who appear in the movie, including Ravi Teja, Bhagyashri Borse, Jagapathi Babu, Subhalekha Sudhakar, and Satya. The film Raid, which was directed by Harish Shankar and written by Harish Shankar, serves as the inspiration for this picture.
This documentary was directed by Harish Shankar. Under the umbrella of People Media Factory, the film was produced by T.G. Vishwa Prasad and Vivek Kuchibotla for the production company. The score was composed by Mickey J. Meyer, and Ayananka Bose was the one responsible for the cinematography.
The Telugu version of the renowned Hindi film “Raid,” which was released in 2018, features Ajay Devgn in the starring role. The film is titled “Mr Bachchan.” The real-life income tax raid that was conducted on Indian industrialist Sardar Inder Singh served as the inspiration for the film.
It was difficult for the movie to attract the attention of viewers in theaters, despite the fact that the storyline was engaging and Ravi Teja was popular with a large number of people. The director Harish Shankar and the actor Ravi Teja each received a percentage of the money that they had paid for the project.
It was with this film that Bhagyashree Borse made her debut, and she is quickly becoming one of the most notable aspects of the movie. During the course of the movie, one among the most talked-about aspects was her glitz and the connection she shared with Ravi Teja.
As a result of the fact that his two most recent films, Tiger Nageswara Rao and Eagle, were both catastrophic failures at the box office, Ravi Teja was in desperate need of a major hit. As a result, he placed a great deal of faith in this movie, but Mr. Bachchan was a failure, and Ravi Teja and Harish Shankar have been ridiculed for duplicating a successful Hindi movie like Raid, which was a tense movie.
