Telugu film Pelli SandD was Roshan Meka's debut Telugu film. The movie did well at the box office and was a significant break for Sreeleela, the female lead. While Sreeleela has been doing back-to-back films, Roshan, on the other hand, took a slower path. He came back to the big screen four years later with his second movie, Champion.

On December 25, 2025, Champion came out in theatres. Vyjayanthi Movies, which made the popular movies Mahanati, Sita Ramam, and Kalki 2898 AD, also made this film. Unfortunately, the movie didn't do well at the box office.

Champion OTT release:

The movie is almost ready to come out on digital. Netflix paid a lot of money for the rights to stream the movie online, and the official OTT release date is January 23, 2026. This means that Champion will be accessible to watch less than a month after it comes out in theatres.

Champion was directed by Pradeep Advaitam under a budget of Rs 40 crore. The female lead in the movie is played by Anaswara Rajan, and this film marks her debut in Telugu. She is seen playing a rural girl and has received critical acclaim for her performance.

Audiences have had different things to say about the movie, but they all agree that Roshan Meka did a great job acting. The young actor has already agreed to work on a number of new projects, including movies with Mohana Krishna Indraganti, Gautham Vasudev Menon, and a debutant. This implies that he is quite sure about what he wants to do with his career.

The story of Champion is about a young man who desires to play football for a team in England. When he joins the fight for India's freedom from British domination, his life takes an unforeseen turn that affects the trajectory of his goals. The movie aimed to merge sports drama with a historical background, but others say that the enormous costs of making it and how it was done damaged it.

It's not certain if Champion will find a greater audience and a new life on Netflix now that it's coming out on OTT.
