Ram Charan’s Peddi Soars Past ₹366 Cr, Deleted Scenes Spark Janhvi Debate

Ram Charan’s latest film Peddi continues its triumphant run at the box office, collecting over ₹366 crore worldwide since its June 4, 2026 release. The rural sports drama, which also stars Janhvi Kapoor, has swiftly become a top pick for Telugu audiences, demonstrating the star power of Ram Charan after his recent successful outings in Tollywood.

Director Buchi Babu Sana recently addressed criticism regarding Janhvi Kapoor’s character, revealing during a media interaction that three important scenes featuring her were removed during editing, which impacted the character’s depth. The director admitted, "the final presentation did not fully reflect what was initially envisioned," and assured fans he is committed to improving in future projects. This candid acknowledgment has garnered appreciation from moviegoers and industry circles alike.

Despite some online debate, Peddi’s box office momentum remains strong. On its 11th day, the film was selling 13,000 tickets per hour on BookMyShow, a remarkable feat for a second-week release. The ensemble cast, featuring Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, Divyenndu Sharma, and Boman Irani, along with a soundtrack by AR Rahman, has contributed to the film’s mass appeal. Produced by Vriddhi Cinemas, the team is now gearing up for a grand success press meet in Hyderabad to keep the buzz alive and further push collections.

With post-release promotions in full swing and audience interest still high, fans can look forward to more milestones for Peddi in the coming weeks.
