Hyderabad: Ram Charan’s much-awaited sports action drama Peddi is finally set to hit theatres on June 4. Directed by Buchi Babu Sana, the film has created strong buzz among fans, especially in the Telugu states. With paid premieres and strong advance bookings, trade experts are predicting a massive opening at the box office.
Advance bookings for Peddi have started on a positive note. The film has already sold lakhs of tickets across India, with the Telugu version contributing the majority of sales. Cities like Hyderabad, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam, and Guntur are witnessing strong occupancy levels.
The film is also performing well in overseas markets, particularly North America, where advance sales have crossed the million-dollar mark. This overseas support is expected to add significantly to the opening day collections.
According to trade analysts, Peddi has a realistic chance of touching the Rs 100 crore worldwide gross mark on its opening day, including paid premiere collections.
The biggest contribution is expected from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where special shows and temporary ticket price hikes have boosted revenue potential. Overseas collections are also expected to play a major role in helping the film achieve the milestone.
Based on current trends:
The film arrives after the disappointing box office performance of Game Changer. While Ram Charan enjoyed global success with RRR, industry experts believe Peddi will be an important test of his solo box office strength.
Many trade observers feel that a strong performance from Peddi could re-establish Ram Charan as one of the biggest pan-India stars and give Telugu cinema another major blockbuster.
Peddi is a rural sports action drama featuring Ram Charan in the role of a crossover athlete and wrestler. The film also stars Janhvi Kapoor, Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu and Divyendu Sharma in key roles.
