Ram Charan’s rural sports drama Peddi is set to get an extended cut with new scenes from Wednesday, June 17th. After speculation about additional footage, reports now suggest the enhanced version will screen in theaters with fresh Peddi scenes.
New Scenes in the Extended Version
According to reports, three new scenes will be added to the extended cut. Two scenes reportedly feature Janhvi Kapoor, while one additional scene showcases Jagapathi Babu. The new Peddi scenes are expected to enhance the storytelling in director Buchi Babu Sana’s rural sports drama.
The extended cut marks an unusual move for a film already in theatrical release, though such versions have become more common in Indian cinema to sustain box office momentum.
Fan Response and Box Office Prospects
Fans have shared mixed reactions to the extended cut announcement. Many believe the team should have released this version during the first week, noting that most of Peddi’s theatrical run (around 90%) wraps up by the second weekend.
Still, the extended cut could add footfalls for the Ram Charan starrer. The additional scenes featuring Janhvi Kapoor and Jagapathi Babu might draw audiences back to theaters, especially fans eager to see the expanded version on the big screen.
The new Peddi scenes begin screening from Wednesday, June 17th across theaters.
