The film was produced by Dil Raju, Sirish and Boney Kapoor under their banners Sri Venkateswara Creations and Bayview Projects. It is a remake of the 2016 Hindi-language film Pink and stars Pawan Kalyan, Nivetha Thomas, Anjali, Ananya Nagalla, Prakash Raj, and Shruti Haasan. The film features score and soundtrack by S. Thaman. Despite the second COVID lockdown being announced just five days after its release, the movie went on to become a box office hit following Agnyaathavaasi Principal photography of the film began in January 2020 in Hyderabad and the film was released on 9 April 2021. Vakeel Saab faced several challenges, including canceled benefit shows and blocked ticket price hikes due to the Andhra Pradesh government's refusal to enforce a High Court-approved increase, reportedly due to political vendetta against Pawan Kalyan. Additionally, many screenings were canceled shortly after its release due to a lockdown imposed following the severe second wave of COVID-19 in the country. Despite these issues, the film grossed ₹137.65 crore worldwide, becoming the second highest-grossing Telugu film of the year with ticket prices ranging from just 5 rupees to 25 rupees in Andhra Pradesh.
