The movie “Toby,” directed by Basil Alchalakkal and which debuted in theatres earlier this year, is about to make its OTT premiere. The compelling criminal drama will debut on Friday, December 22, on Sony LIV.
‘Toby’s’ writer, co-producer, and main actor, Raj B. Shetty, announced on social media that the film will soon be streamable after a protracted wait. After receiving great reviews from both reviewers and viewers throughout its theatrical run, OTT subscribers have been quite interested in seeing Toby again.
Toby OTT Release Date
Toby is all set to premiere on December 22, 2023, on Sonyliv.
Raj B. Shetty emphasised that ‘Toby’ is his most “commercial” experiment to date before the film’s release in theatres. This was announced before the film was released. One would discover a few meticulously constructed “mass moments” in film dispersed all over the place, which is what Raj meant to say. Of course, the picture contained all of his signature sensibilities, and it also had a powerful tale around which to rest.
The majority of this was accomplished through the use of action sequences and even slow-motion cinematography (which was done by Praveen Shriyan), mostly to make the theatre experience a little bit more interesting and enjoyable.
When and Where to Watch Toby
You can watch this action-drama on Sonyliv starting December 22, 2023.
This film does not belong to any particular genre. The item has a small amount of everything. The slow-moving narration and the incredibly predictable concept, however, are a serious disadvantage for Toby.
There is no element of surprise, nor is there an overwhelming experience. It is because to the trailer that the conclusion can pass off in a fairly ordinary manner without providing the spectator with a cathartic event. The film builds up to a fantastic pre-climax, but then it fails to live up to expectations near the end.
When he stated that he enjoys working with broken people, Kannada actor and filmmaker Raj B. Shetty, who plays the main character in the film “Toby,” could not have delivered a more truthful statement. The film “Toby,” which was written by Raj himself and directed by Basil Alchalakkal, is the perfect example of people who have been blown to smithereens. It is the story of a guy who, in the course of finding love for his daughter, manages to lose himself in the procedure.
During his performance as the title character, Raj B. Shetty demonstrates once more what a talented actor he is. Due to an event that occurred while he was a young boy, Toby is unable to speak. He has a speech impairment. Because he is disruptive and ends up in jail, he is being held at a remand home.
What’s the story of Toby

When Sampath first begins to ask questions about Toby, some name him the “devil,” or “Shaitan,” while others describe him as a simple-minded angel with a youthful innocence. Is it possible for a man to be both an angel and the devil? Or is there more to uncover to uncover the true Toby?
