09:10 PM IST: Seated in the auditorium. The atmosphere is electric with fans cheering, chanting, and celebrating as the show is about to begin. Expectations are sky-high for Peddi.
09:32 PM IST: Buchi Babu takes his time introducing Peddi, but the wait pays off. Ram Charan’s entry is a solid mass moment, elevated by Rahman’s energetic background score. The “Rai Rai” song follows and works well on screen.
09:48 PM IST: The village backdrop is portrayed authentically, creating a strong atmosphere and adding emotional depth to the story.
10:03 PM IST: Janhvi Kapoor’s introduction is largely centered on style and glamour, while the character itself feels underdeveloped. The “Chikiri Chikiri” song adds some energy to the proceedings.
10:32 PM IST: Jagapathi Babu is terrific as Appalasoori. His fight for the people is presented effectively, and the MLA meeting sequence stands out as one of the best moments of the first half.
10:49 PM IST: Peddi’s first half is decent. The film starts well and builds good momentum, but the weak heroine track and the scenes that follow slow it down. However, the emotional Appalasoori episode before the interval and Peddi’s emotional interval block work brilliantly, setting up the second half on a strong note.
