**Hyderabad, India** – Vishwak Sen’s latest action thriller, “Mechanic Rocky,” directed by Ravi Teja Mullopudi, hit theaters on November 22nd to a mixed response. The film, featuring Meenakshi Chaudhary and Shraddha Srinath as female leads, centers around insurance fraud and online cybercrimes.
While the second half of the film, tackling the relatable issue of financial crimes, is praised for connecting with audiences, the first half’s comedic approach is considered a drawback by some critics. The film’s success now hinges on weekend audience response and box office collections.
Despite the mixed reviews, “Mechanic Rocky” has reportedly sold its OTT rights to Amazon Prime Video for a significant price. The film is expected to stream in late December or early January, approximately 4-6 weeks after its theatrical release, though the exact date may depend on box office performance.
The film follows the story of Rakhesh alias Rocky (Vishwak Sen), a B.Tech dropout who helps his father run a garage and driving school. His life is disrupted by Raniki Reddy (Sunil), who eyes his garage’s location. Maya (Shraddha Srinath), a driving student, attempts to help him, adding further layers of complexity to the plot. The film explores the mystery surrounding Maya’s identity, her motives, and the significance of Priya (Meenakshi Chaudhary) in Rocky’s life.
