You just need to create a new File object such as...

    String filepath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/file.mp4";
    File file = new File(filepath);
    long length = file.length();
    length = length/1024;
    Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Video size:"+length+"KB",
    Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

this gives the size of the file, not the image

Having an URI you can do it like this:

String[] mediaColumns = {MediaStore.Video.Media.SIZE};
Cursor cursor = getContext().getContentResolver().query(videoUri, mediaColumns, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
int sizeColInd = cursor.getColumnIndex(mediaColumns[0]);
long fileSize = cursor.getLong(sizeColInd);
cursor.close();
