Janhvi Kapoor’s first look from Peddi
The official social media page of Peddi posted two looks of Janhvi from the film, revealing that she plays Achiyyamma. They wrote, “Our #Peddi's love with a firebrand attitude. Presenting the gorgeous #JanhviKapoor as #Achiyyamma. #PEDDI GLOBAL RELEASE ON 27th MARCH, 2026.” The first poster shows Janhvi standing up and greeting a crowd from a jeep equipped with speakers. She seems to be at a village fair. The second poster offers a much closer look, showing her performing near a microphone. Ram also shared her posters on social media.
Fans guessed in the comments that Janhvi seems to play a rural singer in the film. One of them commented, “Heroine - lead singer in Singing Troop (part of Village festival events).” A fan wrote, “I think she is playing singer character in Rural areas.” Another joked about the old-fashioned nature of the name, writing, “Ma pakkaintlo bammagari peru kuda adhe (The grandma who lives next to me is also named that).” One fan even tried out how their names sound like together, commenting, “Peddi weds Achiyyamma,” Some thought her look was similar to the one in Devara.
