Pawan Kalyan resumed the shoot of Vakeel Saab after eight months. The filming part of this Pink remake will be wrapped up in a month and then Pawan will move on to his next assignments.
Although Vakeel Saab’s shoot will be wrapped up shortly, producer Dil Raju is yet to take a call on its release date.
Dil Raju thought of releasing it for Sankranthi, but things are looking very bleak for a biggie like this. Nearly half a dozen medium range movies are lined up for Sankranthi release, but Dil Raju is clueless on how buyers would react to a biggie like Vakeel Saab.
Given the high remuneration of Pawan Kalyan, the film directed by Sriram Venu should fetch nearly Rs 100 Cr from its theatricals, but buyers may not take such a huge risk on an experimental movie when they themselves are clueless about the market dynamics during the pandemic.
Even OTT companies may not be looking to bag the rights of Vakeel Saab given its high budget and limited appeal.
