Even US Immigration Officers Know Ram Charan — Janhvi Kapoor’s Peddi Promo Story Proves RRR’s Global Power

If you ever needed proof that Indian cinema has truly gone global, Janhvi Kapoor just handed it to you — straight from a US immigration counter. While promoting her upcoming film Peddi alongside Ram Charan, the actress shared a charming real-life moment that says more about Telugu cinema’s worldwide reach than any box office number ever could.

Janhvi Kapoor’s Viral Anecdote — The Full Story

During Peddi promotions, Janhvi told IANS that whenever she interacts with airport authorities outside India, they often ask her about Ram Charan and RRR. She said that even at US immigration, when officials learned she was an Indian actor, they immediately brought up RRR, Ram Charan, and Jr NTR.

That’s not just fandom — that’s cultural penetration. And it perfectly sets the stage for Peddi, which releases June 4, 2026.

Peddi — Everything You Need to Know

The film revolves around a young village man regarded as a legend across multiple sports — cricket, wrestling, and running — who faces his biggest test while striving to make a name for himself. Think of it as a pan-Indian underdog story with an AR Rahman soundtrack to back it up. What’s not to love?

The film’s global ambitions make perfect sense given the RRR effect. For context on how RRR reshaped Indian cinema’s global footprint, Wikipedia’s RRR page is a great deep-dive.
