Peddi Twitter (X) Review: Ram Charan’s rural sports drama ‘Peddi’, directed by Buchi Babu Sana, finally arrived in theatres today amid tremendous expectations. The film stars Ram Charan alongside Shiva Rajkumar, Janhvi Kapoor, Jagapathi Babu, and Divyenndu, with music by AR Rahman and cinematography by R. Rathnavelu. The moment the first shows ended, X exploded with opinions from all sides.
The hype going in
The pressure on this film was real. ‘Peddi’ marks Ram Charan’s third release since the blockbuster ‘RRR’, but none of his post-‘RRR’ films have come close to recreating that success. The makers had already shown the film to buyers, with producer Ravi Shankar claiming every buyer gave it a “blockbuster” report, calling it the biggest film of Ram Charan’s career. But the buzz was low, as the trailer did not really connect with audiences. The film’s success depended entirely on word-of-mouth after release.
Fans go wild on X
Once the premiere crowds walked out, fan reactions flooded the timeline. In a post that went viral, ‘Peddi’ was referred to as “pure cinematic fire.”
Done ☑️ with first half

Not even single scene not worthy 🔥🔥🔥
Fire every scene it’s a masterpiece..#peddi #peddiblockbuster

Ram Charan was lauded for delivering “one of the most intense and career-defining performances of his life. People said he owned every frame with unmatched screen presence,” while Janhvi Kapoor was praised for bringing charm and depth to the story.
Not everyone was convinced
Positive buzz ran into a wall of skepticism from another camp on X.
Pretty average 1st half with a decent interval. Only Charan is holding it together so far. BGM is so so #Peddi

Several users pointed to pacing concerns. Critics noted the film feels slightly stretched in places, even while acknowledging strong performances throughout.
The first hour on X tells one story clearly: the fans came out swinging, and so did the skeptics. ‘Peddi’ is not a clean hit or a clean miss in public opinion yet. The word-of-mouth over the next 24 hours will settle it.
With a reported budget of Rs 350 crore and the weight of two consecutive flops behind him, Ram Charan needs the numbers to match the noise.
