Ram Charan’s Peddi Postponed, Ustaad Bhagat Singh Locks March Slot

The summer release calendar has undergone a significant reshuffle, with Ram Charan’s Peddi now officially postponed. Due to several crucial sequences yet to be filmed, pending songs, and extensive post-production work still remaining, the makers have decided that the film will not be able to meet its originally planned March or April release.

Peddi was initially slated for a grand release on March 27 as a special treat for Ram Charan’s birthday. However, with the postponement, the prime March 26 release slot has fallen vacant—and it has now been secured by Pawan Kalyan’s much-awaited Ustaad Bhagat Singh.

The film is set to arrive in theatres worldwide a week after the release of the Hindi biggie Dhurandhar 2. Although there were early concerns about losing opening momentum due to the Ranveer Singh-starrer, the makers have decided to stand firm on the late-March release date.

The primary reason behind this confidence is the film’s core target markets. Ustaad Bhagat Singh is aimed mainly at the Telugu states and the North American circuit, with minimal focus on North India, ensuring little to no direct competition. Meanwhile, the team is preparing to ramp up promotions aggressively, with more songs expected to be released in the coming days to build buzz ahead of its theatrical launch.
