Speaking at the event, Ram Charan described the pairing as deeply nostalgic not just for his family, but also for fans who grew up watching Chiranjeevi and Sridevi create magic on screen together in several blockbuster films.
“I am very happy. My dad and Sridevi ma'am had worked together and it was long long wish for our family, our fans and who appreciated our parents come together.... It's a nostalgic thing for all of us. And this pair will not disappoint you guys. She (Janhvi) has done her best,” said Ram Charan, instantly drawing cheers from fans at the event.
The actor also showered praise on Janhvi Kapoor for her dedication and sincerity during the making of the film. Ram Charan admitted he was left stunned by the actress’s preparation and discipline, especially during the shooting of a song sequence that demanded intense rehearsal and precision.
“I have never seen such a diligent person in my life. The way she is working so hard. The last day we shot a song. I didn't have time because we were shooting 85 days continuously and then the song landed up. I was learning there and I was doing it. And I didn't know whether she had practiced it too. She did it a 100 times better than me in the last song we did,” he revealed.
Calling Janhvi Kapoor a “chhupa rustam,” Ram Charan further added, “She was quietly learning it in Mumbai. I like that dedication. She is very sincere to her work. And 'Peddi' needed a lot of sincerity from all of us.”
The emotional interaction quickly became one of the biggest highlights of the trailer launch, which was attended by director Buchi Babu Sana, music legend AR Rahman, producer Venkata Satish Kilaru and the rest of the cast and crew.
Meanwhile, the trailer of Peddi has already created massive buzz online for showcasing Ram Charan in an intense rural sports drama packed with wrestling, cricket, and sprinting sequences. The three-minute-and-seven-second trailer presents the actor as a fierce multi-talented athlete battling oppression and powerful landlords while chasing his passion for sports.
The film also stars Boman Irani and Divyenndu in key roles, with Divyenndu expected to portray a major antagonist. One of the trailer’s standout moments features Boman Irani hailing Ram Charan as the “cross athlete of India,” adding even more hype around the ambitious project.
Produced by Vriddhi Cinemas and backed musically by AR Rahman, Peddi is rapidly emerging as one of the most anticipated Telugu films of 2026. With nostalgia, action, sports drama, and emotional storytelling coming together, fans are now eagerly waiting to see Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor recreate cinematic magic on the big screen.
