Global Star Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor unite for the pan-India film 'Peddi', first look of the actor unveiled on his 40th birthday

Global Star Ram Charan is set to take the silver screen by storm once again with his highly anticipated 16th film, directed by National Award-winning filmmaker Buchi Babu Sana of Uppena fame. This pan-India spectacle is presented by leading production house Mythri Movie Makers, in collaboration with Sukumar Writings, and is produced by the visionary Venkata Satish Kilaru under his ambitious banner, Vriddhi Cinemas.

Before the real storm hits, the makers released a pre-look poster yesterday, igniting immense curiosity ahead of the first-look reveal. Extending birthday wishes to Ram Charan, they officially unveiled the film’s title as PEDDI. The title encapsulates the power and gravitas of Ram Charan’s character, hinting at something truly monumental.

Ram Charan undergoes a stunning transformation for PEDDI, shedding his superstar aura to embrace an intense, earthy, and fiercely raw character. The first-look poster captures him in a gritty, no-nonsense avatar—his piercing eyes, messy hair, untamed beard, and nose ring exude an air of unshakable dominance. Clad in rugged attire and smoking a cigar, he embodies a character that is unapologetically fierce and deeply rooted in raw power. Adding to the intrigue, a second poster reveals him holding an old cricket bat, with a rustic village stadium illuminated by floodlights in the background. These visuals hint at a narrative rich in rural intensity and gripping drama.
