Global Star Ram Charan’s Peddi is already turning heads with just a glimpse, and expectations are sky high. The village sports drama is directed by Uppena fame Buchi Babu Sana and features Bollywood’s Janhvi Kapoor as the female lead.
The “First Shot” teaser, released on the eve of Sri Rama Navami, created a social media frenzy. But the highlight? That final shot—Ram Charan sending the ball out of the ground in a totally unique style. It blew up instantly. Fans tried recreating it, reels popped up everywhere, and the buzz was real.
But here’s the big question—who actually came up with that killer move?
Turns out, the man behind the moment is none other than action choreographer Maibam Naba Kanta Meitei, popularly known as Naba Kanta. Director Buchi Babu officially revealed this in an exclusive interview with Filmfare.
For those who don’t know, Naba Kanta is already a known name among action circles. He choreographed the intense Jathara and climax sequences in Pushpa 2, and has also worked on biggies like Acharya and Waltair Veerayya. So the uniqueness in Peddi isn’t just a fluke – there’s some serious craft behind it. With someone like him behind the action, fans are now even more curious about what the full film has in store.
Peddi is being made on a massive budget and is gearing up for a grand multilingual release on March 27, 2026. Apart from Ram Charan and Janhvi, the film features Shiva Rajkumar, Divyenndu Sharma, Jagapathi Babu, Satya and more. Music is by the maestro AR Rahman, and it’s backed by Vriddhi Cinemas. Keep an eye out—because this is just the beginning of what Peddi has to offer.
