Abhishek Bachchan starrer The Big Bull has finally arrived on Disney+ Hotstar today (April 8). The film that is loosely based on the life of stockbroker, Harshad Mehta, has been drawing many comparisons with Hansal Mehta’s web series Scam 1992 ever since its announcement. While Bachchan has been vocal about how the film is different from the show, many Twitter users have opposite views on the topic. A user even thinks that “one can never match the bar set by team #Scam1992.”

The actor replied to the tweet and wrote, lied, “Hey, just came across this tweet. I’ve acted in #TheBigBull does it count if I love Gujarati food and my favourite restaurant is @gordhan_thal in Amdavad? Plus my manager is also Gujarati….. please say yes.”

Abhishek Bachchan is very much aware of these comparisons that are being made between his film and Hansal Mehta’s show. Previously praising Scam 1992 in a conversation with Bollywood Hungama, the actor had said, “I saw Scam (1992) last year and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I think it was just a wonderful achievement on behalf of the entire team.”
“Please don’t make unfair comparisons. There can be multiple tales on the same story. Every storyteller 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,” he continued. The Big Bull also stars Ileana D’Cruz, Sohum Shah, Nikita Dutta, Ram Kapoor, and Mahesh Manjrekar in key roles. Directed by Kookie Gulati and produced by Ajay Devgn.
