One of the bigger disappointments in the recent past is Mr Bachchan which was released during the Independence Day weekend. The film was rejected by the theatrical audience as it opened to poor reviews and weak word of mouth.
Cut to now, the film is headed for its OTT debut on Netflix. The OTT giant announced that the film will be made available for streaming on their platform from the 12th of this month.

Bachchan is a supposed actioner and it is a remake of Bollywood’s Raid and it features Ravi Teja and Bhagyashri in the lead roles.
