**Hyderabad, India** – Australian cricket superstar David Warner is trading his bat for a film role, making a cameo appearance in the upcoming Telugu film *Robinhood*, starring Nithiin. The film, slated for release on March 28th, sees Warner command a hefty fee of ₹2.5 crore (approximately $300,000 USD) for a mere 2-minute and 50-second role, filmed over two days. This translates to a reported ₹1.25 crore per day, placing him among the highest-paid cameo actors.
Warner’s appearance follows his popular social media presence, particularly his numerous reels featuring the popular “Pushpa” theme. While his fans express excitement and some surprise at the substantial fee, the cricketer’s inclusion is undoubtedly a significant promotional boost for *Robinhood*.
The film itself is a blend of humor, action, and fast-paced storytelling, directed by Venky Kudumula and also starring Sreeleela, Kyle Paul, and Vennela Kishore. The soundtrack is composed by G.V. Prakash Kumar. With Warner’s addition, anticipation for *Robinhood* is reaching fever pitch.
