Mega Star Ram Charan’s highly anticipated film Peddi, which is being directed by Buchi Babu Sana, has been making waves in the trade. The movie is eagerly anticipated by fans, and expectations are high riding on the movie, which looks set to be a huge success in box office terms. The star power of Ram Charan and the novel idea of the movie have created fireworks, and no doubt Peddi will dominate theaters when it is released.
First, the team had scheduled finishing the shoot of Peddi by October 2025 to enable Ram Charan to proceed with his next major project alongside director Sukumar in December 2025. Charan previously stated that he would not take on any single project for over a year, so December would be when Sukumar’s film was supposed to begin.
Still, recent reports indicate that the Peddi shoot is now going to run up through January 2026. The delay has caught many off guard, yet it is being linked to Ram Charan’s perfectionism and the freedom of choice granted to director Buchi Babu Sana. Charan, who is a perfectionist in his approach to work, is going out of his way to ensure the movie is up to standards. Meanwhile, Buchi Babu Sana has been allowed complete creative freedom to realize his own vision, which has played its part in the prolonged shooting schedule.
Due to this delay, the filming for Sukumar’s film is currently scheduled to start in May 2026 rather than December 2025. This has created doubts regarding Sukumar’s availability since the director might have other projects or commitments by then. Fans are now left anticipating if Sukumar will be available to start the project as originally intended or if more changes to the schedule will take place.
