By: Shanaz B Syed | 9 April 2026 2:50 PM ISTIt is almost confirmed now that Peddi is not arriving on April 30th as planned, if we look at the factors around it. The makers are already working on a new release date. At the same time, one pending piece is holding things back, which is nothing but the special song.
A set has been completed, and everything is ready, but the actress for the song is still not locked. That’s where the delay is happening. Meanwhile, the film’s leading man, RRR star Ram Charan, is said to have taken it easy. He stepped out of the city and flew to Jamnagar for Anant Ambani’s birthday celebrations. Before leaving, he asked the team to finalise the actress so that the shoot could happen quickly once he was back. Because here is the thing. The song shoot is just a two-day job.
There were early rumours about Mrunal Thakur coming on board. But it looks like that didn’t go through. Reports say her remuneration demand was on the higher side, and the team decided to drop the idea. Then another name started doing rounds, which is of Telugu beauty Manasa Varanasi. But even that is not confirmed yet. So the situation is still unclear as to who will do the hyped Item Song in this movie.
On the other side, director Buchi Babu Sana is in Chennai working with AR Rahman on the background score. At the same time, producer Venkata Satish Kilaru is in talks with Netflix regarding the revised release plans. Everything should fall into place in the next few days, most probably.
