[9] Anand, also known as Mr. Bachchan, is a powerful and honest Income Tax Officer known for his expertise in uncovering black money from those who have amassed wealth illegally.

The film unravels how Anand earned the nickname "Mr. Bachchan," the challenges he faced in carrying out Income Tax raids, and the circumstances that led to his suspension.

[8] Times Now's Sasidhar Adivi called it "a soulless adaptation of Raid" and gave a rating of 2 out of 5, stating "Mr Bachchan is action-heavy with the film relying mainly on Ravi Teja’s intense performance to build his case.

Director Harish Shankar, known for his successful adaptations, misses the mark here by infusing outdated comedy and forced romantic subplots that do little to enhance the story.

"[16] Calling it "masala-laden adaptation of Raid", Sangeetha Devi Dundoo of The Hindu opined that the film is "overdrawn, meandering mess", while praising the soundtrack.

[18] Aditya Devulapally of Cinema Express rated 1.5/5 stars and wrote "This Harish Shankar and Ravi Teja collaboration seems to be a true attempt at self-mockery and the fact that this is a remake doesn’t help either".
