Generally I do not review movies as I am not good at it and this is also not a review in a way. I recently watched both back to back though The Scam – Webseries was released last year. Though having a strong liking for junior Bachchan I will have to say that unfortunately he could not do justice with the biopic. However, I wouldn’t troll him and compare him with Pratik Gandhi who was bang on in The Scam. Abhishek acted fairly well.
I have also worked in media industry so I understand technical liberties and limitations. Still, a biopic should be a biopic. In the movie focus was to show Abhishek more as a hero, if he would have been able to portray Harshad it would have been great. Changes in names, fictonalising the events made the movie look even more unbearable. Whereas The Scam presented the exact facts, you can actually feel it’s a Hansal Mehta work as the brilliant director he is. Like for example Ram Jethmalani presented Harshad’s side but in movie that was also changed. The movie had many loopholes. The Scam was a masterpiece. However, comparing both would be unfair but the comparisons will arise if people have previously watched The Scam.
In short, The Big Bull disappointed many of us to great extent.
