MOVIE REVIEW:
Venu Sriram’s Vakeel Saab is an official remake of the Bollywood hit Pink, a film that managed to break barriers and generate conversations, especially around consent. While the film has been tweaked with a generous dose of masala to not just suit Pawan Kalyan’s star image but also his budding political career, Venu manages to get the balance right for the most part.
Pallavi (Nivetha Thomas), Zareen (Anjali), and Divya (Ananya Nagalla) are roommates who work hard to make a living for their middle-class families. Their happy, simple, and carefree life soon turns upside down due to an unfortunate encounter one night. Facing charges of solicitation and an attempt to murder, the girls find themselves painted into a corner by an influential man and his friends.
