Ram Charan and Ravi Kishan will share the screen in Buchi Babu Sana's Peddi.

Ravi Kishan compares Peddi to 3 Idiots, Dangal

During his speech, Ravi stated that Peddi is the kind of film that gives hope to the youth of this country. “Ye aapko 3 Idiots ki bhi yaad dilayegi, Dangal ki bhi yaad dilayegi. Lekin Peddi ek aisi kahaani hai, jisme Bharat ka har yuva apni zindagi ko dhoondega,” he said, adding, “Jo umeed chod chuka hai, jisko lagta hai, yaar mai kya karun life mei. Mujhe kuch kar nahi sakta hoon. Yaar, mai haar gaya. I lost my exam. This time, I was defeated. Wahan pe Peddi aapko umeed degi. Peddi Bharat ki hope banega. Peddi yuvaon ki hope banega. Ye vo film hai, ye vo kahaani hai.”

(Translation: This film will remind you of 3 Idiots and Dangal. Peddi is the kind of film that will inspire the youth of this country. The one who has given up hope, the one who doesn’t know what to do with their lives. The one who thinks they can’t do anything and feels defeated. Peddi will give hope to them. Peddi will become the hope of India, the hope of the youth of this country. This is such a film.)

Predicts National Award win for Ram Charan

Not just that, Ravi also claimed that Peddi is an unpredictable film that will keep you hooked. Praising Ram and predicting award wins for him, he added, “Ram Charan sir, what a performance. I’ve seen you; you were my producer. I worked with him before when he produced me. His father, the Megastar Chiranjeevi sir. Powerstar Pawan Kalyan sir is a very good friend of mine. He made Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy. But I promise you, Ram Charan sir, this is something else. National Awards, all awards, I can see all those awards coming.”

Peddi is directed by Buchi Babu Sana, produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru under Vriddhi Cinemas, co-produced by Ishan Saksena under IVY Entertainment, and presented by Mythri Movie Makers and Sukumar Writings. It stars Ram, Janhvi Kapoor, Shiva Rajkumar, Ravi, Jagapathi Babu and Divyenndu. The sports drama, which sees Ram’s titular character play cricket, wrestle, and run, will be released in theatres on June 4. AR Rahman has composed the film’s music.
