Initially, three major pan-Indian releases Yash’s Toxic, Nani’s Paradise, and Ram Charan’s Peddi were set to clash over the Ramzan and Ugadi weekend of 2026. However, with two of them now delayed, Peddi has a clear solo window.
As per strong speculation, Yash’s Toxic, which was earlier planned for a March 19 release, is facing production delays. Reports suggest that Yash is not entirely happy with the film’s outcome under Geetu Mohandas’s direction and has decided to rework certain portions to make it more commercially appealing.
Similarly, Nani’s Paradise is also being postponed due to shooting delays caused by set construction issues.
With these changes, trade experts predict that Ram Charan’s Peddi will now get a solo release on March 26. The date aligns perfectly with festive holidays in March and April, giving the film a huge advantage at the box office.
Even with average word of mouth, Peddi is expected to perform strongly. Some netizens, however, believe these reports are just rumours caused by the silence from the Toxic team, though no official confirmations have surfaced yet.
Directed by Buchi Babu Sana, Peddi is set for a grand pan-India release on March 26, coinciding with Sri Rama Navami. The film’s first song, composed by A. R. Rahman, will drop next week.
All eyes are now on how Ram Charan’s Peddi capitalises on this golden solo slot. If the film delivers, it could make waves across India, including the Hindi belt. After the Game Changer setback, this could be Ram Charan’s perfect comeback moment.
