Ram Charan’s sports drama Peddi has completed its extended first week with a Peddi Telugu share of ₹164 crore in 8 days. Directed by Buchi Babu Sana and featuring Janhvi Kapoor alongside Ram Charan, the film now enters a crucial second weekend that could determine its path to breakeven.
Breakeven Challenge Ahead
With theatrical rights valued at ₹210 crore, Peddi needs to generate at least another ₹40 crore share from the Telugu states to cover its costs and offset the overseas component. The film’s performance over the next few days will be critical in determining whether it can close this gap.
| Metric | Amount |
|---|---|
| Telugu Share (8 Days) | ₹164 Cr |
| Theatrical Rights | ₹210 Cr |
| Additional Target | ₹40 Cr |
Coastal Andhra Leads the Charge
Coastal Andhra Pradesh has emerged as the standout performer for Peddi, delivering impressive numbers throughout the first week. The region continues to be a major contributor to the film’s overall Telugu share, maintaining strong footfalls even on weekdays.
All Telugu-state territories need to sustain their performance for the film to successfully cover the theatrical investment and achieve profitability in the coming days.
Second Weekend Crucial
The film has shown encouraging trends during its weekday run, which bodes well for the upcoming weekend. With no major competition and positive word-of-mouth from the first week, Peddi is expected to witness favorable growth on Saturday and Sunday.
The sports action drama, featuring music by A. R. Rahman and a supporting cast including Shiva Rajkumar and Jagapathi Babu, released on June 4, 2026. The second weekend will largely determine whether the film can achieve the momentum needed to reach its breakeven target in the Telugu states.
