Synopsis
An orphan who treats the whole country as his family steals from the rich to fund struggling orphanages. His path crosses that of a wealthy Australian CEO's daughter through a rundown Hyderabad security firm. The film is a Telugu heist comedy in which charity-minded theft meets a corporate family's visit to India, and comedy drives the plot as much as action.
Robinhood 2025: a heist comedy with a charity twist
Robinhood 2025 is a Telugu heist action comedy written and directed by Venky Kudumula, with Nithiin and Sreeleela in the leads. The name does the explaining: the hero takes from the wealthy and directs the money to orphanages. The twist is that the film sets this up as a light, caper-style entertainer instead of a grim crime story.
The plot brings in a wealthy Australian CEO's daughter visiting India and a rundown Hyderabad security company that ends up connecting the characters. Heist stories depend on planning, misdirection and the pleasure of watching a scheme unfold, so this is a film where the comedy beats and the set pieces carry the weight.

Release date and where to watch
The film reached cinemas on 28 March 2025. It had earlier been planned for Christmas 2024 (sources give either 20 or 25 December), then moved, with press reports linking the shift to a crowded festival calendar.
For streaming, sources agree that ZEE5 began carrying it on 10 May 2025, about six weeks after the theatrical release. Runtime is listed as 156 minutes. We did not find a verified certificate. Availability can change, so look for the title on ZEE5 in your own region.
Songs by G. V. Prakash Kumar were released through Sony Music India, with singles titled One More Time, Wherever You Go and Adhi Dha Surprisu.
Cast, crew and who it suits
Nithiin plays Ram, the hero who goes by Robinhood, and Sreeleela plays Neera Vasudev. The supporting list includes Devdatta Nage, Shine Tom Chacko, Rajendra Prasad, Brahmanandam, Vennela Kishore and Suhasini Maniratnam. Former Australian cricketer David Warner appears in a cameo, which was widely reported as his debut in Indian cinema. The producers are Naveen Yerneni and Yalamanchili Ravi Shankar for Mythri Movie Makers.
It suits viewers who want a breezy weekend entertainer, enjoy ensemble comedy and do not mind a familiar steal-from-the-rich template. If you want realism or a tightly plotted crime thriller, you should adjust expectations. The title borrows a famous English folk-hero name for a Hyderabad-set story about stealing for a cause.
By the numbers, the film runs 156 minutes, has a music album by G. V. Prakash Kumar. Treat it as an easy, mood-lifting watch rather than a film that needs careful notes. Whether the comedy lands will depend on your taste.
