Ram Charan’s ‘Peddi’ Trailer To Launch In Bhopal On May 16; A. R. Rahman Expected To Perform Live

The makers of Peddi are preparing for a large trailer launch event in Bhopal on May 16, just weeks before the film releases worldwide on June 4. Starring Ram Charan in the lead, the film has already been creating strong buzz online through its posters, songs and teaser glimpses.

Directed by Buchi Babu Sana and backed by Mythri Movie Makers and Vriddhi Cinemas, Peddi is now moving into its next promotional phase, with what is being planned as a major launch event.

According to reports, the Bhopal event is expected to see the presence of Ram Charan, director Buchi Babu Sana, producer Venkata Satish Kilaru, filmmaker Sukumar and Janhvi Kapoor, who plays the female lead in the film.

One of the biggest talking points around the event is the expected live performance by A. R. Rahman. Since the film’s music was released, songs like Chikiri Chikiri and Rai Rai Raa Raa have already picked up strong numbers online, adding more attention around the soundtrack.

The excitement around Peddi has also grown because of Ram Charan’s look in the film. Reports suggest the actor will be seen in two different phases, one as a village cricketer and another as Peddi Pehlwan. Every new update from the film has been trending heavily across social media platforms.

Apart from Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor, the film also stars Shiva Rajkumar, Divyendu Sharma and Jagapathi Babu in important roles.

The film has also started gaining attention overseas. Reports claim bookings in North America crossed the $100K mark within hours of opening, showing early interest among audiences outside India as well.

With the trailer launch now around the corner and A. R. Rahman’s expected performance adding to the excitement, Peddi is continuing to stay among the most discussed upcoming releases right now.
