By: Priya Chowdhary Nuthalapti | 24 Jun 2026 9:41 AM ISTDirector Buchi Babu Sana delivered an emotional speech at the Peddi Mega Blockbuster Event and thanked the audience for making the film a massive success. He also expressed his gratitude to Megastar Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan, producer Venkata Satish Kilaru, mentor Sukumar, and the entire team.
Buchi Babu said, "During my days in Pithapuram, I used to write letters to Chiranjeevi garu. I never received a reply from him, but I got the opportunity to narrate my very first story to him. Even my second film, Peddi, reached his home. That itself is a dream come true for me."
Speaking about the film, he said, "Peddi is a story that shows how much a person can achieve through determination and strong willpower. I am very happy to stand before you today with such a story. When I narrated this script to Ram Charan garu, my only wish was that audiences would take the character of Peddi home in their hearts after watching the film."
Praising Ram Charan's performance, Buchi Babu added, "Ram Charan garu went far beyond my expectations. I wanted the audience to remember the character, but he made Peddi live forever in their hearts. It is not an ordinary thing for a star hero to deliver such a performance. If you watch the entire second half of the film, all you can see is Charan garu's acting. I imagined the character in a great way, but Charan performed it ten times better than what I had envisioned. I can never forget Ram Charan garu for the rest of my life."
Buchi Babu reserved special praise for his mentor Sukumar. He said, "I would like to thank my guru Sukumar garu. Without him, I would not be here today. In fact, I feel more proud when people call me 'Sukumar garu's assistant' than when they call me a director."
Concluding his speech, Buchi Babu thanked the audience and said, "I will always remain grateful for the love and support you have shown to this film. My heartfelt thanks to every viewer who made Peddi such a grand blockbuster.”
