One of the primary reasons for the postponement of Peddi from its original April 30, 2026, release date is the filming of a special song. The Ram Charan starrer, a rural sports drama directed by Buchi Babu Sana, has now moved to a June 2026 release window.
A strong rumour suggested that actress Samyuktha was roped in to dance with Ram Charan in this song. However, as per the latest information, no one has been finalised by the team. Currently, the film unit is working on the “Rai Rai Ra Ra” song, with a small patchwork shoot underway at Ramoji Film City.
Peddi also features an ensemble cast including Janhvi Kapoor, Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, Divyenndu, and Boman Irani. The film is produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru under the Vriddhi Cinemas banner, in collaboration with Sukumar Writings and Mythri Movie Makers, featuring a score by A.R. Rahman.
