Nithiin and Venky Kudumula’s film is now called Robinhood; Check out quirky and fun first look and glimpse video

We had earlier reported that Telugu actor Nithiin will be teaming up again with director Venky Kudumula for a project. Earlier today, the makers revealed the first look and title of the film: Robinhood. The duo has earlier worked on the Telugu film Bheeshma.

On the occasion of Republic Day, the makers of Robinhood released the first look poster. The film is backed by leading production house Mythri Movie Makers. The makers also released a glimpse of the film, giving us a hint as to what the film will be about.

What do we know about Robinhood?

The glimpse of the film, which was released on Friday, gives a hint as to what the film will be about. Entering the frame disguised as Santa Claus is Nithiin, who is holding a bag of cash and gold. While the front portion of his bike reads, ‘I’m an Indian’, in the back, it is written, 'I’m aware that I’m rare'. As he hides his money, Nithiin says that since he treats all Indians as his brothers and sisters, he also feels the right to steal money from them. Meanwhile, Nithiin was last seen in Extra Ordinary Man, an action comedy film written and directed by Vakkantham Vamsi.
