Upcoming work

Ravi was recently seen in Harish Shankar’s Mr Bachchan which released in theatres on Independence Day. The film clashed with Puri Jagannadh’s Double iSmart. Both films failed to make a mark at the box office. Mr Bachchan is the Telugu remake of Ajay Devgn-starrer, the 2018 film Raid. Harish adapted the story to a commercial format, which did not sit well with viewers. The actor will soon be seen in a yet-to-be-titled film, #RT75.
