Peddi Director Pitching For Megastar

. The sports drama had big scale and hype but received mixed reviews. It still managed a decent theatrical run and later trended on Netflix.

Peddi drew praise for scale and Charan’s performance, but criticism focused on screenplay and character arcs. Janhvi Kapoor’s role especially sparked debate online. Despite flaws, Ram Charan’s star pull helped it recover costs. The OTT release reignited discussions on plot gaps. For Buchi, the reception makes his next project very crucial.

Now, the Sukumar protégé is said to be crafting a mass family story tailored for Chiranjeevi. A Buchi Babu–Chiranjeevi combo excites fans given Buchi’s large-scale vision and Chiru’s pan-India appeal. The Megastar is in a strong phase after Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, raising expectations for his next.

However, sealing the deal may be tough post Peddi feedback. Chiranjeevi is choosing scripts carefully, and Buchi has earlier pitched to Mahesh Babu too. For now, this remains a reported pitch, not a confirmation. If Buchi delivers a strong script, the collaboration could become one of Tollywood’s biggest announcements.
