Ram Charan’s Peddi Shows Stellar Monday Hold, Eyes Box Office Records

Mega Power Star Ram Charan’s latest film, Peddi, has cemented its box office dominance by maintaining a sensational hold on Monday—a day when most big releases see collections drop sharply. This outstanding weekday performance signals that Peddi is not just a weekend wonder but a true blockbuster in the making.

Directed by Buchi Babu Sana and produced by a leading banner, Peddi comes on the heels of Ram Charan’s celebrated track record of hits, with fans placing high expectations on every new release. The film achieved a staggering worldwide gross close to ₹300 crores within its opening weekend, making it the fastest solo-hero film in Ram Charan’s career to reach such a milestone. Despite the absence of a festive holiday boost, occupancy rates across Andhra Pradesh, Nizam, and key centres like Uttarandhra and East Godavari remained exceptional, with many theatres reporting houseful shows.

The film’s momentum continued as Peddi logged an impressive 173,330 ticket bookings in just 24 hours on a working Monday. According to reports, nearly 14,000 tickets were being booked every hour, a rare feat for a weekday. Audience word-of-mouth has been overwhelmingly positive, with critics and fans alike praising Charan’s compelling performance and the film’s inspiring story. Ram Charan himself attended a special screening with fans, sharing in the excitement and further fueling the film’s popularity. As one report noted, "the critical appreciation and unanimous praises from audiences for inspiring story, Charan performance is driving the movie to new heights at the box office."

With Tuesday bookings also trending strong, all eyes are on Peddi as it continues its box office rampage. Industry watchers eagerly await to see if Ram Charan’s latest outing will break more records and set new benchmarks for Telugu cinema.
