Ever since the trailer of Abhishek Bachchan starrer, The Big Bull came out, the movie has been constantly compared to the web series Scam 1992 which was released last year. Both Scam 1992 and The Big Bull are based on the life of Harshad Mehta. This has left fans drawing parallels between the two. So when a Twitter user asked Abhishek why one should watch The Big Bull if they have already seen Scam 1992, the actor had a witty reply.
On Twitter, the user asked Abhishek, “I did watch Scam 1992 already, tell me one reason to watch The Big Bull again.” Replying to the user the actor wrote, “I’m in it.” That’s it!
I’m in it. 😉🤣

Talking about The Big Bull and Scam 1992, director Hansal Mehta had earlier urged fans to refrain from comparing them. He had taken to his Twitter account and wrote, “Please don’t make unfair comparisons. There can be multiple tales of the same story. Every story-teller will have his own way and should be seen independent of the other. This film has so many talents involved just like my show. They’ve done their best and they deserve your love.”
And very intriguing trailer with such phenomenal actors. You are in great form @juniorbachchan. More power to the entire team of #TheBigBull on @DisneyPlusHS. ❤️

Meanwhile, apart from Abhishek, The Big Bull also stars Nikita Dutta. The actress has unfortunately tested positive for Covid. Nikita told ETimes that she has immediately quarantined herself. “It’s difficult to maintain social distance while shooting certain scenes, and actors cannot wear a mask when the shot is on. Our safety rests on the shoulders of the crew. Safety precautions like using sanitisers, masks and temperature checks are in place, but people are still contracting the virus,” said the actress.
The Big Bull will stream on Hotstar from April 8 onwards.
