After a theatrical run that generated mixed responses, Nithiin and Sreeleela’s heist action comedy Robinhood is now set for its digital premiere.
Streaming date out!Directed by Venky Kudumula, the Telugu-language film will start streaming on OTT from May 10 at 6 PM.
Released in theatres on March 28, 2025, ‘Robinhood’ attempted to bring a blend of action, comedy, and social messaging to the big screen. Despite average box office performance, the film garnered attention for its unique storyline and the surprising addition of Australian cricketer David Warner in a key role, aimed at boosting its appeal.
An interesting plotThe film follows the story of Ram (played by Nithiin), an orphan who grows up witnessing poverty and hunger among fellow orphans. Moved by their struggles, Ram turns into a modern-day Robinhood, stealing from the rich with his clever strategies and helping the needy. As his missions unfold, he crosses paths with Neera Vasudev (Sreeleela), the daughter of a powerful pharma tycoon.
Their journey takes them to Rudrakonda, a village that becomes the focal point of a global drug trade, thanks to its cultivation of a rare marijuana strain. The movie had all the elements to entertain the audience, but somehow the execution failed. Also the movie had failed to create a hype before it’s release, apart from the selling point factor that it was David Warner’s acting debut.
Now heading to ZEE5, ‘Robinhood’ promises a fast-paced narrative packed with humor, action, and timely themes.
Overall verdict‘Robinhood’ received mostly mixed reviews from the audiences. One Twitter user wrote, “Just completed #Robinhood Congratulations @actor_nithiin You are back to track & also congratulations to @VenkyKudumula garu it's your 3 rd consecutive super hit, I enjoyed the film every bit & it's one of best comedy film in recent times, give it a watch with your friends.” Another Twitter user wrote, “@VenkyKudumula anna endhi anna maku idhi asal intha worst ga okaru cinema ni teyochu ani prove chesav worst movie I've watched in recent time is #Robinhood @actor_nithiin thanks for the torture you gave us. @sreeleela14 please I beg you to stop acting please Rating ⅕.”
