Ram Charan’s much-awaited sports drama Peddi has made a thunderous start at the box office, reportedly collecting over ₹115 crore gross worldwide on its opening day. The impressive figure places the film among the biggest openers of Ram Charan’s career and has given the industry a major talking point.
What makes the opening even more significant is that the film entered theatres amid mixed reactions to its trailer and varying opinions from audiences on day one. Despite those factors, the massive pre-release buzz, strong promotional campaign, and Ram Charan’s star power helped Peddi register exceptional numbers across key markets.
The focus now shifts to the crucial opening weekend. With strong advance bookings and favorable holiday conditions in several regions, trade circles expect the film to maintain momentum and add substantial collections over the next two days.
While Peddi has performed exceptionally well in the Telugu-speaking states, its long-term success will depend heavily on its performance outside the core markets. Karnataka has contributed decent numbers so far, but the film needs stronger support from other territories to maximize its box-office potential.
Particularly, North India and Tamil Nadu are expected to play a key role in determining the film’s overall trajectory. If the movie manages to gain traction in these regions and holds steady from Monday onwards, Peddi could be well on its way to recovering its business comfortably and emerging as one of the major box-office successes of the year.
