Ever since Mega Power Star Ram Charan’s Peddi began, fans have been fondly addressing director Buchi Babu Sana as “Thala” (Head or Boss). Charan has now called Buchi Babu by the same nickname, and this came as a sudden and sweet surprise for fans.
The first single from the sports action drama, Chikiri Chikiri, composed by AR Rahman, has got the internet buzzing. As the romantic song breached the 100-million-views milestone on YouTube across languages, the team released a making video showcasing the effort put in by everyone to deliver a pleasant experience to the audience.
The team was seen climbing a mountain to film Charan’s dance moves, and during the trek, the star kept teasing his director by calling him “Thala” and asking him to be cautious. The making video is now gaining traction on social media. Fans are pleasantly surprised to see Ram Charan being well aware of the online chatter.
Janhvi Kapoor plays the female lead in this big-ticket entertainer, produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru of Vriddhi Cinemas. Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, Divyenndu Sharma, and Boman Irani play key roles. Peddi hits cinemas on March 27, 2026.
