Picking a trope from the 80s and 90s, Khaali Peeli is proof that stale storytelling doesn't work today.
Starring Ishaan Khatter (Blackie) and Ananya Panday (Pooja) in the lead roles, the film is a story of two childhood sweets who have to part ways due to circumstances but they meet again as adults and their story takes a twist.
Directed by Maqbool Khan, the film also stars Jaideep Ahlawat as the lead villain Yusuf Chikna.
While the film lacks anything concrete to hold onto your attention, it's only some performances that act as the saving grace.
Khaali Peeli is now available on Zee Plex.
