Global Star Ram Charan’s much-anticipated ‘Peddi’ is making headlines, not just for another release postponement to June 26! Adding a major twist, Mythri Movie Makers has reportedly blindsided veteran producer Dil Raju over the film’s crucial Nizam distribution rights. This double whammy, stemming from pending production and A.R. Rahman’s score, has the Telugu cinema industry buzzing.
Peddi Delayed Again: New June Date
The release of Ram Charan’s highly anticipated film ‘Peddi’ has been postponed yet again, now reportedly slated for June 26. Adding to the significant developments, Mythri Movie Makers has delivered a major surprise to producer Dil Raju concerning the film’s Nizam distribution rights. These changes stem from pending production work, including a song shoot and VFX, and the reported time taken by A.R. Rahman for the background music. ‘Peddi’, starring Global Star Ram Charan and directed by Buchchibabu Sana of ‘Uppena’ fame, is a massive budget production from Mythri Movie Makers.
Initially, the film was announced for a March 27, 2026 release, coinciding with Ram Charan‘s birthday. This date was later shifted to April 30 due to pending VFX work, other shooting commitments, and new 90-day ticket regulations introduced in Telangana. Although Ram Charan had previously clarified that the April 30 release was firm, recent reports indicate another delay. According to the latest information, one song shoot is still pending, and technicians are diligently working to ensure outstanding VFX. Furthermore, music director A.R. Rahman is reportedly taking additional time to deliver an amazing background score. Consequently, the makers are now said to be planning a new release date of June 26, with a premiere show on June 25, and an official announcement is expected soon.
Meanwhile, the discussion around who would acquire the Nizam rights for ‘Peddi’ has been prevalent for days, especially given producer Dil Raju‘s strong association with and typical acquisition of theatrical rights in the Nizam area for most major and minor releases. While initial reports suggested Dil Raju would secure these rights, Mythri Movie Makers is now reportedly preparing for a surprising self-release, taking the industry by storm. This decision is reportedly based on Mythri’s confidence in the film’s output, despite big-budget films generally receiving fancy offers from other distributors. The estimated value of the film’s Nizam area theatrical rights is approximately 63 crores.
Mythri’s Bold Nizam Self-Release
Film analysts express concern that if the government does not allow an increase in ticket prices, recovering such a massive amount could pose the film’s biggest challenge. However, some believe this target is achievable given Ram Charan’s immense popularity. The film has already generated significant buzz, with its first glimpse and songs setting good records on social media.
‘Peddi’ marks a first in Ram Charan’s career as he takes on a sports-backdrop story, complemented by music from Oscar winner A.R. Rahman. Janhvi Kapoor stars opposite Ram Charan, supported by a strong ensemble cast including Boman Irani, Shiva Rajkumar, Divyendu Sharma, and Jagapathi Babu in pivotal roles. The industry keenly awaits what records this highly anticipated film will create.
Ultimately, both the postponement of ‘Peddi’s release and the sensational decision regarding Nizam rights have become major topics of discussion in film circles. Fans will now have to wait until the new anticipated release date of June 26 to experience the film.
Looking Ahead
“Peddi” fans now patiently await June 26. However, Mythri’s audacious Nizam rights play has undeniably sent ripples through Tollywood. This isn’t just a release update; it’s a potent signal of evolving power dynamics. The industry keenly watches how this bold move reshapes future collaborations and equations.
