With PM Narendra declaring lockdown in India to curb the spread of coronavirus, people are definitely struggling to keep the work going but that doesn’t mean there’s no work happening. Everyone’s slowly getting used to considering the current situation through work from home.
But when it comes to directors, they can hardly do much about their film shoots being stalled until the situation gets under control. The max they can do is either they can write fresh stories or they can make changes in the existing script of their forthcoming movies. Right?
Well, in the same way, Power Star Pawan Kalyan’s comeback film Vakeel Saab’s director Venu Sriram has made a few changes in the script during the lockdown period. Yes, you read it right. A source close to us exclusively revealed to us that the makers made changes and reduced Shruthi Hassan’s scenes along with the court-room scenes.
It is heard that Shruthi Haasan has earlier allotted 25 days for Vakeel Saab. But, now after making changes in the script, the makers have asked her call sheet for 7 days for the shoot and 3 extra days for patchwork. We’ve also learned that Shruthi Haasan’s remuneration for Vakeel Saab is Rs. 50 Lakhs. Our source further revealed that the makers are planning to resume the shoot from September.
The film is being produced by Raju and Shirish PS Vinod is handling the camerawork. Vakeel Saab stars Nivetha Thomas, Anjali, and Ananya Nagalla reprising the roles of Taapsee Pannu, Kriti Kulhari and Andrea Tariang from the original Hindi film Pink. The film’s music is composed by SS Thaman.
