Peddi is one of the most awaited films of 2026, featuring Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor in the lead roles. The action drama is being directed by Buchi Babu Sana of Uppena fame. The film was initially scheduled for a March 27, 2026 release, but we at OTTplay were the first to reveal that the makers had postponed the release.
Has Ram Charan's Peddi been postponed?
The latest update is that the makers have locked a new release date, and Peddi will now hit the screens on May 1, 2026. The film is yet to be fully wrapped up, and the makers did not want to release it during a crowded window.
One of the major reasons for the postponement is the release of Dhurandhar 2 on March 19, 2026, which is expected to create massive buzz nationwide.
Additionally, Nani’s The Paradise was also scheduled for March 27, 2026, but that film has been postponed as well, as it is only halfway through its shoot and requires extensive post-production work.
On the personal front, Ram Charan is also in the news as he recently became a proud father to twins, a baby boy and a girl. Peddi is one of Ram Charan’s most ambitious projects to date, and he is taking extra care to ensure the film becomes a massive box office success, especially after the debacle of his last film, Game Changer, directed by Shankar.
Ram Charan's transformation for Peddi has become a talking point
Ram Charan has undergone a striking transformation for the film and will be seen in a powerful and intense role. The film also features Jagapathi Babu and Divyendu Sharma in key roles. Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman has scored the music, and the first song, Chikiri, has already created a sensation on social media and short-video platforms.
Peddi's second single to be revealed soon
The makers were initially planning to release the second song soon, but with the film’s postponement, the launch has been put on hold. The second song is expected to be unveiled shortly, along with the final confirmation of the release date.
For now, May 1, 2026, remains the release date and very soon, the makers will announce it officially at a grand event in Hyderabad. The hype for the film is quite huge as the post-theatrical rights have been sold for a massive price to Netflix. Stay tuned for more updates on this project.
