Ram Charan is generating considerable excitement with his upcoming film Peddi, currently in the final stages of shooting. Directed by Buchi Babu Sana, who impressed audiences with Uppena, Peddi is a sports drama that sees Ram Charan undergoing a striking physical transformation. Recently, he was spotted shooting shirtless scenes, showcasing a sculpted physique tailored for his role, raising fans' anticipations to new heights.
The film stars Janhvi Kapoor as the female lead, supported by stalwarts Shiva Rajkumar, Divyenndu Sharma, and Jagapathi Babu. Peddi's music, composed by the legendary AR Rahman, has already created waves with hit songs like "Chikiri Chikiri" and "Rye Rya Ra Ra." Rumors also hint at a special dance number featuring celebrated actresses Mrunal Thakur, Pooja Hegde, and Ayesha Khan, adding further allure.
With shooting wrapping up by the end of March, attention now shifts to an ambitious pan-India promotional blitz. Ram Charan will personally spearhead promotions across major Indian cities covering Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam markets starting mid-April. Joined by Janhvi Kapoor and director Buchi Babu Sana, the tour will include city-by-city fan events, media interactions, and trailer launches designed to build momentum across every linguistic belt. The production houses Mythri Movie Makers, Vriddhi Cinemas, and Sukumar Writings are backing this aggressive rollout ahead of the grand release slated for April 30, 2026.
The multi-city promotional push signals a clear intent: Peddi isn't just a Telugu film it's being positioned as a national event. With a high-energy sports narrative, charismatic performances, and Ram Charan's growing pan-Indian star power, Peddi aims to set new benchmarks across all major markets.
