Vakeel Saab shooting delayed 

According to a report by the Hans India, Pawan Kalyan starrer Vakeel Saab's shooting should have been done by now but keeps getting delayed, owing to which its 2021 Pongal release seems uncertain.

His plans to return on the sets of Vakeel Saab will only happen after he is done with his political tour. The final schedule of the film is yet to start and at this filming pace, it would be difficult for the makers to release the film in 2021 on the occasion of Pongal and the Pink remake might have to be shifted for a summer release. Vakeel Saab's cast includes Pawan Kalyan who will reprise the role of Amitabh Bachchan in the movie while Nivetha Thomas will play the role of Taapsee Pannu and Anjali will take up Kirti Kulhari's role. The drama directed by Venu Sriram has been jointly produced by Dil Raju and Boney Kapoor. He was last seen in the 2018 Telugu language action-drama Agnyaathavaasi.
