Ram Charan: The Only Star With Peace of Mind!

Looking at the Tollywood tier 1 star pool, Ram Charan seems to be the only one with real peace of mind right now. This is not negative toward the other stars or their current projects on shoot. It is only about their current situations.

There are four active tier 1 Telugu star heroes today, plus Mahesh Babu who is from a different age group but still equal to them in stardom. Prabhas is the biggest and every film he works on has huge scale. His lineup is massive with projects like The Raja Saab, Fauji and Spirit. NTR is taking his biggest career shot with Prashanth Neel. This is also big Pan India project. Allu Arjun is making his most expensive film with Atlee, a sci-fi movie. Mahesh Babu is working with India’s number one director Rajamouli. All of these films are massive and highly risky as well.

That leaves Ram Charan who is doing director Buchi Babu’s Peddi. In this league of giant projects, Peddi is the only regular film. It is a simple rustic drama with songs and a sports backdrop. This brings some relief. He does not need to chase the Pan India market. Even a small pull in Hindi will be seen as a win. The other stars do not have that comfort because their films are expected to perform everywhere given their scale.

The other stars are also dealing with huge budgets, world building and the pressure of selling their films across India and overseas. North America openings also crucial for them.

Ram Charan is in a safe zone with Peddi. On top of that, the song Chikri Chikri is already working with Hindi audiences. A decent opening in Hindi is possible even without Pan India target.

So in every way we look at it, after the stress of a major setback like Game Changer, Ram Charan finally has a peaceful and steady project with Peddi.
