Former Australian cricketer David Warner, known for his deep admiration of Telugu cinema, is all set to make his Tollywood debut.
David Warner will appear in a special cameo in the upcoming action-comedy film Robinhood.
The film, which is directed by Venky Kudumula, has been creating a buzz due to Warner’s involvement, as he is well-loved in the Telugu film community for his social media tributes to popular films.
Warner, who has often expressed his love for Tollywood through playful Instagram videos and reels, has danced to hits like “Srivalli” from Pushpa and mimicked popular dialogues from Telugu blockbusters.
His social media presence has endeared him to Telugu fans, who have celebrated his fun-filled posts.
Speaking at a promotional event in Hyderabad, producer Ravi Shankar confirmed Warner’s cameo role. He revealed, "David Warner has played a small role. I feel proud we're launching him in Indian cinema, especially with Robinhood." Though details about his character remain under wraps, the actor’s involvement has raised expectations among fans.
Robinhood, which is a fresh take on the legendary Robin Hood tale, features a mix of action, comedy, and adventure. The film stars Sreeleela, Shine Tom Chacko, Rajendra Prasad, and Vennela Kishore in key roles, with Warner’s cameo adding star power.
With Warner’s recent retirement from international cricket, his Tollywood debut marks an exciting new chapter in his career. Robinhood is scheduled for release on March 28, 2025, and is expected to draw both cricket and cinema fans to theatres, with Warner’s presence being a major crowd-puller.
Fans are eagerly awaiting to see how Warner’s entry into Tollywood adds a unique flavour to the film’s narrative, making his debut an exciting event in both cricket and cinema circles.
