The official Hindi trailer for the sports-action drama "Peddi" was released on May 19, 2026 [1].
The film marks a significant collaboration between stars Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor, featuring a score by A.R. Rahman and direction by Buchi Babu Sana. Its release aims to generate audience interest ahead of its global cinema debut.
Set in rural Andhra Pradesh during the 1980s, the movie focuses on the raw energy of cricket in the countryside. Director Buchi Babu Sana said the trailer showcases that specific atmospheric energy. The production emphasizes a period-accurate aesthetic to capture the spirit of the era.
During the trailer launch event in India, Ram Charan praised the dedication of his co-star. Regarding a musical sequence in the film, Charan said, "She did it 100 times better than me in the last song."
Charan also used the promotional event to acknowledge industry veterans who supported the project. "I want to thank Salman Khan and Aamir Khan for their blessings and support," he said.
The film is scheduled to hit cinemas worldwide on June 4, 2026 [2]. The trailer release is the final major promotional push before the theatrical window opens.

The release of 'Peddi' represents a strategic move to blend regional storytelling from Andhra Pradesh with the broader appeal of the Hindi film market. By utilizing a 1980s sports setting and high-profile talent like A.R. Rahman, the production seeks to capitalize on the growing trend of period-specific sports dramas that appeal to both nostalgic and modern audiences across India.
