Pushpa 2 Benchmark Tricked Ram Charan in Bhopal ?

The multi-city promotional drive for Ram Charan’s sports drama Peddi hit an awkward speed bump during its music launch in Bhopal. While the massive event successfully drew an estimated crowd of nearly one lakh fans, it quickly became a major talking point for all the wrong reasons. The immense pressure to replicate the historic crowd frenzy achieved by the Pushpa 2 campaign appeared to weigh heavily on the superstar.

During an interaction segment intended to celebrate Indian sports icons, Ram Charan accidentally blurred his sporting lines while praising star Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah. In a clip that immediately went viral, the actor enthusiastically declared himself Bumrah’s biggest fan before mistakenly stating how much he appreciated how the athlete was taking “football” to new heights.

To compound the chaotic moment, Charan later experienced a brief geographical slip-up during his speech. He mistakenly addressed the energetic Madhya Pradesh gathering as the people of Bihar before the event host quickly intervened to correct the error.

Recognizing the rapid spread of the online trolling, the actor took to social media to issue an immediate, good-natured clarification. Attributing the mix-up to exhaustion and a genuine human error amidst the excitement of the crowd, he admitted to occasionally being forgetful with names while reiterating his deep respect for the cricketer.

While internet meme pages continue to capitalize on the slip-ups, the Peddi promotional machinery is pushing forward at full throttle. The team is hoping the massive ground buzz generated in the Hindi belt will completely overshadow the stage exhaustion as the final countdown to its June 4 theatrical debut approaches.
