From its announcement video to its first-look posters and teaser glimpses, every piece of content from Ram Charan’s upcoming film Peddi has sparked conversations, trends, and excitement across social media platforms. Its first single, Chikiri Chikiri, completely took over upon release, crossing a staggering 46 million views in just 24 hours and emerging as one of the most viewed and liked music tracks of the year. Now, images from the sets have been leaked, showcasing Ram Charan shooting in Delhi.

Ram Charan shoots for Peddi in Delhi


While the excitement for Peddi continues to rise, Ram Charan’s shooting images from the sets have surfaced online. As seen in the leaked pictures, Ram is walking on the streets near Rashtrapati Bhavan in Delhi during the chilling winter and concerns of rising AQI in the capital city. Looking absolutely raw, it appears that he is playing a very different character.



These leaked visuals have further piqued curiosity and anticipation for the film. Ram Charan seems to be stepping into an entirely new avatar, making it even more exciting to see him on the big screen. 

The team was earlier scheduled to wrap the Delhi portion in the second half of November. However, owing to the Red Fort blast that raised security concern, the team had decided postpone the shoot. 

About Peddi first single Chikiri Chikiri

A few weeks back, the makers released the foot-tapping romantic single Chikiri Chikiri from the film, much to the delight of fans and film buffs. The foot tapping number, which has been set to tune by A R Rahman, has lyrics by Balaji and is sung by Mohit Chauhan. Ram Charan unleashes his signature dance flair, perfectly synced to Rahman’s infectious and high-voltage composition. The beat radiates energy, and the number delivers a full-blown visual and musical feast. Ram Charan sports a mass and rustic look and the hook step is a treat to watch.

It may be recalled that earlier, director Buchi Babu Sana had disclosed the meaning of 'Chikiri'.

The director, who posted a video clip of him having a conversation with A R Rahman, is seen explaining the situation of the song to the music director. He says, "The hero sees the heroine for the first time in the village. He tells his friend that she is that rare girl who looks beautiful without any makeup. He calls her a chikiri."

Rahman asks what a Chikiri, is and to that the director replies, "The men in the hero's village affectionately call the pretty women of their village Chikiri. That is where the song begins."

When is Peddi releasing?

Featuring Ram Charan, Janhvi Kapoor, Jagapathi Babu, Shiva Rajkumar and Divyendu Sharma, Peddi is directed by Buchi Babu Sana and is presented by Mythri Movie Makers and Sukumar Writings under the banner Vriddhi Cinemas. With a top-notch technical crew on board, Peddi promises a rich cinematic experience. R Rathnavelu is handling cinematography, while National Award-winning editor Navin Nooli takes charge of the editing.

Peddi is slated for a grand Pan-India theatrical release on March 27, 2026, coinciding with Ram Charan’s birthday.
