CHENNAI — Australian cricketer David Warner has done a cameo in director
Venky Kudumula’s upcoming Telugu action entertainer ‘Robinhood’, featuring
actor Nithin in the lead, one of the film's producers Y Ravi Shankar has now
disclosed.
During a promotional event for the film ‘Kingston’,
featuring G V Prakash in the lead, the producer was asked for updates on his
film Robinhood by the anchor.
Responding to her request, he said Australian cricketer
David Warner had done a cameo in the film much to the delight of fans and film
buffs. The producer immediately apologised to director Venky Kudumula for
having disclosed the information without his permission.
“We are very happy to have launched David Warner in
Indian cinema with our ‘Robinhood’,” he said.
On Monday, Telugu actor Nithiin, who plays the lead in
Robinhood, participated in a promotional event for actor-music director G V
Prakash’s upcoming sea horror fantasy adventure, ‘Kingston’. Nithiin and his
Robinhood team were present at the event in a bid to support their film’s music
director G V Prakash, who, apart from playing lead, is also turning producer
with ‘Kingston’.
‘Robinhood’, as the title suggests, has Nithiin playing a
thief who steals from the rich to give to the poor. He plays a character called
Honey Singh, who is involved in a series of robberies. Nithiin’s character in
the film is such that he has no agendas. A courageous person, who has no fear,
Nithiin’s character in the film is such that he is willing to take on anybody
for the right price.
The release of the film, which was originally scheduled
to hit screens last year, has now been pushed to March 28 this year.
Produced by Naveen Yerneni and Y Ravi Shankar, Robinhood
has Cherry as its CEO and Hari Tummala as its Executive producer. It has been
directed by Venky Kudumula and features Nithiin and Sree Leela in the lead.
The film has music by National Award winning music
director G V Prakash Kumar and cinematography by Sai Sriram. Art direction for
the film is by Raam Kumar and editing is by Koti.
