Ravi Teja and Harish Shankar’s Mr. Bachchan is set to storm the theatres tomorrow evening. The Tellanchu Nallacheera song, which was released yesterday at the pre-release event, gave the film an extra push, and it has already started trending on YouTube. The ticket bookings for paid premiers have begun, and the response so far has been good.

In a promotional interview, the director of this action drama, Harish Shankar, made an interesting statement: “I will be happy if people watch Raid (original version) before watching Mr. Bachchan. That way, the audience can understand to what extent we made the changes, and their respect towards me will increase.

Harish Shankar added, “If people watch Mr. Bachchan without seeing Raid, they might think I have done a scene-by-scene remake. Hence, I request the audience to watch Ajay Devgn’s Raid before stepping into Mr. Bachchan’s theatres.” This is quite a confident statement from the mass director, known for making solid masala entertainers. Let’s see if he can deliver a blockbuster again with Mass Maharaja.
