If there was any doubt that Ram Charan could carry a blockbuster on his own shoulders post-RRR, Peddi has settled that conversation emphatically. The film has posted one of the biggest opening weekends of 2026 — and the real race is only just beginning.

How Does Peddi Compare to Other Telugu Blockbusters?
The numbers in Coastal Andhra alone tell a powerful story. Peddi grossed approximately Rs. 62 crore in the region over its four-day extended opening weekend — comparable to Pushpa 2 (Rs. 66 Cr), They Call Him OG (Rs. 60 Cr) and ahead of both Kalki 2898 AD (Rs. 57 Cr) and Devara (Rs. 49.50 Cr) in the same window.
That is extraordinary company to be in, and it firmly establishes Peddi as one of the biggest Telugu openings in recent memory.
What’s Next: Can Peddi Hit Rs. 200 Crore in Telugu States?
With Rs. 141.75 crore already banked in AP/Telangana over just four days, the Rs. 150 crore milestone in Telugu states was expected to fall on Day 5. Beyond that lies an even more exclusive target — the Rs. 200 crore mark in Telugu states, a box office milestone that only seven films in history have ever crossed.
There’s a very real chance Peddi joins that elite club. Unlike many of the films that achieved it, Peddi does not have major public holidays ahead to boost collections — but it does have something equally valuable: an open field with no immediate major competition. How well the film holds in Week 2 will be the decisive factor.
Karnataka has also been a bright spot, contributing over Rs. 20 crore to the opening haul. The Hindi version, however, failed to make any notable dent — a familiar story for dubbed Telugu releases in the North.
Overseas numbers were comparatively softer, with USD 4.56 million across all international territories. The USA led at USD 2.65 million, followed by the Middle East (USD 625K), Australia-NZ (USD 340K), the UK (USD 440K), and Canada (USD 180K).
