Ram Charan sustained an injury near his eye while shooting an action sequence for Peddi on March 24, 2026. The actor’s team confirmed the incident, clarifying that he required four sutures and that the injury was above his eye — not on it — contrary to some reports doing the rounds. They further confirmed that his eye was completely fine and that he had already resumed work, describing it as a minor injury with nothing to worry about. National Today
That’s the kind of dedication that sets stars apart. Four stitches one day, back on set the next — very on-brand for someone playing an intense sports action role.
What Is Peddi About?
Peddi is said to revolve around a cricket tournament set against a rural backdrop. Alongside Ram Charan, the ensemble cast includes Janhvi Kapoor, Shiva Rajkumar, Divyendu Sharma, Jagapathi Babu, and Boman Irani, among others.
Earlier, the makers introduced Janhvi Kapoor’s character Achiyamma, who appears to portray a bubbly and spirited character set in a village backdrop.
The film’s music is in safe hands — AR Rahman is composing the score, and the makers recently unveiled the second single titled Rai Rai Raa Raa, a peppy dance number featuring energetic moves by Charan, with Rahman himself lending his voice in both Telugu and Tamil. National Today
Birthday Teaser on the Way!
