Ram Charan recently faced a small mishap while shooting for Peddi, where he suffered a minor injury near his eye. The incident did cause some worry among fans at first, but the film’s team soon confirmed that it is nothing serious and that he is absolutely fine.
In a thoughtful gesture, Pawan Kalyan reached out with a warm message wishing Ram Charan a quick recovery. Fans were happy to see this, as it once again showed the strong bond and mutual respect between the two stars.
Coming to the film, Peddi, directed by Buchi Babu Sana, is set for a grand release on April 30, with no confirmation of any potential postponements. The makers are clearly aiming to make the most of the summer holiday season, which is known for big box office numbers. Over time, the excitement around the film has already started creating solid buzz both in India and overseas in terms of box office potential.
At the same time, the film has stirred discussion regarding its overseas ticket pricing. Reports suggest that premiere tickets in the United States are priced between $25 and $35, which many viewers feel is quite high. This has led to strong reactions from overseas audiences, especially when compared to a high content film like Dhurandhar 2, made with high technical values, which is reportedly available at lower prices.
Some viewers are questioning whether such premium pricing makes sense for a film that is set in a rural backdrop. Trade experts say that the high prices are likely due to the heavy rates distributors have paid for overseas rights. They also point out that if the film delivers engaging content and receives strong positive talk, audiences may still turn up in large numbers even with these high ticket prices. However, if the response turns out to be average, these higher ticket prices could backfire.
US advance bookings are expected to begin later this week, and this will be an important test to gauge the film’s hype among the audience.
