Plotlines
'Max's plotline: When fans drew parallels to Ravi Teja's 'Krack'
Last week, Max's plot was revealed through a synopsis posted on BookMyShow, which stated that Sudeep portrays Arjun Mahakshay, a police officer who confronts a minister's son for mistreating other officers.
However, the minister's son dies in the ensuing scuffle.
The film follows Arjun's response to this incident and how he battles his way out of a political conspiracy.
This recently unveiled plot led some netizens to draw parallels between Max and Ravi Teja's 2021 Telugu hit Krack.
