Glad to have the dearest @IamJagguBhai garu playing 'APPALASOORI' in our #Peddi.” The dramatic poster sets Jagapathi Babu against the misty rural hills of Andhra Pradesh, immediately hinting at the formidable aura of his character.

The film stars Ram Charan as a spirited villager, alongside Janhvi Kapoor, Shiva Rajkumar, and Divyendu Sharma. Music for the project is composed by A.R. Rahman, adding a signature touch to the film’s immersive storytelling.
Early engagement on Ram Charan’s post reflects the audience’s excitement, with over 1,900 likes and 80 replies, highlighting growing anticipation for the film. Teaser glimpses so far have showcased Charan’s energetic rural persona, promising a vibrant and authentic portrayal of village life. Jagapathi Babu’s casting as Appalasoori, a strong and intense character, adds further weight to the ensemble, generating considerable hype for the release.
Peddi is slated for a theatrical release on March 27, 2026, positioning itself as a major pan-Indian cinematic experience with a rustic, period-driven narrative, compelling performances, and stellar music.
