StoryLine:
The story of the film is based on real events of financial market that took place between 1990 and 2000 involving Harshad Mehta and his financial crimes. Loosely based on the life of Harshad Mehta and his financial crimes, The Big Bull is a story based on real events of the financial market that took place between the years 1990 and 2000.
Abhishek Bachchan gives a commendable performance and he also underplays at several places. He is essaying the part of a flamboyant, egoistic man but he understands that it doesn’t mean he has to go overboard. Interestingly, the actor had done a similar role in the past, in GURU [2007], and the actor ensures that one is not reminded of that performance when they see THE BIG BULL. However, the brief shots of him laughing manically seem unintentionally funny and should have been done away with, ideally. On the whole, THE BIG BULL gets affected due to the comparisons with SCAM 1992. Yet, it stands out at several places and works due to the performances, the dramatic moments and the unexpected finale.
