The Telugu film industry is gearing up for a high-stakes clash at the box office as two big-ticket releases, Double iSmart and Mr. Bachchan, are set to hit theaters on Independence Day.
Puri Jagannadh’s Double iSmart, a sequel to the 2019 blockbuster iSmart Shankar, has generated both excitement and skepticism. While Ram Pothineni’s energetic performance and Kavya Thapar’s glamorous avatar have impressed audiences, the film’s over-the-top action sequences, cringe comedy, and the brain transfer concept have raised eyebrows. Sanjay Dutt’s characterization has also been a point of discussion among fans.
On the other hand, Ravi Teja’s Mr. Bachchan, a remake of the Bollywood hit Raid, has received a mixed response to its trailer. While the film promises a return to form for the mass hero, the commercialization of a serious subject like income tax raids has raised concerns. The action sequences and the presence of veteran actor Jagapathi Babu have generated positive buzz.
