This Is When Ram Charan Would Commence Director Sukumarâs Film
The shooting of Ram Charan’s upcoming film Peddi is progressing briskly. While the unit commenced a new schedule in Pune, filming scenes on Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor, we have got an interesting scoop. Apparently, the RRR star is likely to commence shooting for his next film, under director Sukumar, from February. With Peddi, scheduled to release on March 27, 2026, Charan is likely to commence shooting for the Sukumar directorial just before a month.
Sukumar’s film delayed
When the film (Peddi) was launched in March last year, the idea was to wrap up by mid-2025 so that it gives enough time for Ram Charan to take a breather and prepare for Sukumar’s film. But Peddi, directed by Buchi Babu Sana, has been delayed due to production snags and logistic issues. This in turn further delayed Sukumar’s film. Charan spent more than three years on Game Changer (2025) and the result too was poor. On the other hand, Charan’s fans too wanted to see their favourite star in action on screen at least once every year. It was then the actor took a decision not to spend too much time on one film.
A source in the know informs, “Peddi shooting will be wrapped up by the year-end or January. Ram Charan wants to give enough time for post-production works and movie promotions. Soon, he will turn his focus to Sukumar’s film which is likely to go on floors in February.” Ram Charan and Sukumar earlier collaborated for Rangasthalam (2018). The rustic thriller went on to become the biggest blockbuster in the actor’s career. The actor-director wanted to recreate the magic in their second collaboration. Buzz is that Mythri Movies that earlier bankrolled films like Pushpa series and Rangasthalam are likely to produce the new film. Meanwhile, Sukumar is working on the script and will keep it ready by the time the film goes on floors.
