After Ghilli’s box office success from its re-release, another Telugu film is ready to release in theaters. It was in 2021, at the peak of Covid-19, that Pawan Kalyan‘s Vakeel Saab was released in the theater and was welcomed and loved by the audiences.

Now, the film is ready to re-release on May 1.

The courtroom drama stars Nivetha Thomas, Anjali, Ananya Nagalla, and Pawan Kalyan. Directed by Venu Sriram and produced by Boney Kapoor, the film was an unofficial remake of the Bollywood film Pink.

However, Vakeel Saab had a much different screenplay than Pink, as it included a lot of conversations between the protagonist and the antagonist and some action scenes as well. This was the main reason that the film was never acknowledged as a remake of Pink.
