Double iSmart vs Mr. Bachchan: Puri Jagannadh’s 2019 blockbuster, “iSmart Shankar,” had fans eagerly awaiting its sequel, “Double iSmart.” The trailer for “Double iSmart,” featuring Ram Pothineni, Sanjay Dutt, and Kavya Thapar, garnered mixed reactions. Ram’s energetic performance, his Telangana accent, Kavya Thapar’s glamour, and Mani Sharma’s music impressed many. However, Sanjay Dutt’s look, Ali’s cringe comedy, the brain transfer concept, and some over-the-top dialogues did not sit well with everyone. The film is set to release on August 15.
Competing with “Double iSmart” is Ravi Teja’s “Mr. Bachchan,” directed by Harish Shankar. This film is an adaptation of Bollywood’s hit “Raid.” The trailer, which was unveiled recently, also received mixed reviews. While fans appreciated Ravi Teja’s return to commercial cinema, Bhagyashri Borse’s appeal, Jagapathi Babu’s villainous role, and the action scenes, the comedic elements and the commercialization of a serious film like “Raid” raised some doubts.
Double iSmart vs Mr. Bachchan: Both trailers have their strengths and weaknesses, making it challenging to declare a clear winner. Ultimately, the real test will be how both films perform when they hit the screens on August 15.
