Although Double iSmart was the first to secure the August 15 release date, Ravi Teja and director Harish Shankar refused to comply and are reportedly upset about the situation.
Now according to the latest reports, Charmme has unfollowed Harish Shankar and Ravi Teja on Instagram. We don’t know if she was following them before, but as of now, she is not following them.
Mr. Bachchan is based on a real income tax raid on industrialist Sardar Inder Singh, adapted into a feature film with added cinematic elements.
On the other hand, Double iSmart, a sequel to the blockbuster iSmart Shankar, has good expectations.
The movie features Kavya Thapar and Sanjay Dutt in key roles, and the story revolves around an assassin whose brain gets switched with a cop, leading to an unusual partnership.
As per box office experts, Double ISmart is leading the pre-release business over Mr. Bachchan.
