Ravi Teja, last seen in the film Eagle, is set to star in the upcoming crime-drama Mr Bachchan.

Mr Bachchan, a stylish action-drama set in the 1970s, pays homage to the cinema of that era, with a background score reminiscent of the Don title song and other nods to Amitabh Bachchan's legacy. The teaser concludes with a shot featuring an Amitabh Bachchan poster behind Ravi Teja, who mirrors the iconic actor's swagger.

Directed by Harish Shankar and produced by TG Vishwa Prasad under People Media Factory, Mr Bachchan is Ravi Teja's third project with Shankar, following Shock (2006) and Mirapakay (2011). The film introduces Bhagyashri Borse as the female lead in her debut role.
