“He Put In Immense Effort, Training Every Day For Almost Eight Months To Achieve,” Says Director Buchi Babu Sana About Ram Charan’s Body In Peddi!
Peddi is one of the most awaited films whose hype is constantly rising. The makers recently released a small glimpse, Peddi Pehelwan featuring Ram Charan. While it received amazing response, it was trending all over!

Peddi has emerged as one of the most anticipated films of 2026, headlined by global star Ram Charan. The film also features Janhvi Kapoor and Jagapathi Babu in pivotal roles. Ever since its announcement, the project has been generating significant buzz among fans as well as within the industry. The makers recently unveiled Peddi Pehelwan, showcasing Ram Charan’s transition into wrestling, and it’s easily one of the best transformations in the industry. While we see Ram Charan in a very different physique, director Buchi Babu Sana shares his journey.

Director Buchi Babu Sana detailed the training process behind the actor's new look. "He put in immense effort, training every day for almost eight months to achieve the physique we envisioned for a pehelwan. That level of discipline extended beyond training-while observing Ayyappa deeksha, steered clear of non-vegetarian food," he shares.

Central to this physical overhaul is the gada, a traditional heavy wooden club used by wrestlers. "Every pehelwan uses a mugdar for training. In Peddi, his character shares a strong connection with the gada, which he uses as part of his workouts," Sana explains. "He trained extensively with it, and the fight sequences incorporate that, along with elements like mud and traditional wrestling setups.

With every piece of content, Peddi is becoming one of the most awaited films. Each content drop has worked phenomenally, be it the “Chikiri Chikiri” song "Rai Rai Raa Raa" song or the posters, every piece has taken us into the world of Peddi in a very unique way. This is pure content success. No frills.

Peddi’s first single, Chikiri Chikiri, created a strong buzz right after its release, with audiences loving its fresh vibe and the signature touch of A. R. Rahman. The track quickly connected with listeners and has already crossed over 200 million views across platforms, reflecting the rising excitement around the film’s music.

Taking that momentum forward, the makers dropped the second track, Rai Rai Raa Raa, a high-energy song that instantly grabbed attention online. The track has already surpassed 47 million views on YouTube, further building anticipation among fans for the film’s release.

Written and directed by Buchi Babu Sana, Peddi stars Ram Charan in the titular role, alongside Shiva Rajkumar, Janhvi Kapoor, Divyendu Sharma, and Jagapathi Babu. Produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru under his banner, Vriddhi Cinemas, and in collaboration with leading production house Mythri Movie Makers, the film is scheduled for release on April 30, 2026.
