Ram Charan's highly anticipated sports action drama 'Peddi' has taken the North American box office by storm. The film, which has faced two delays, is now set for a worldwide release on June 4, 2026, with premieres planned a day earlier in many international locations. The latest update on advance bookings has delighted fans, as the movie opened ticket sales in North America just a few hours ago and received an overwhelmingly strong response.
Record-Breaking Pre-Sales
According to a report by Gulte, 'Peddi' crossed the $100,000 mark within just four hours of opening bookings in North America. This rapid response has surprised many in trade circles. Previously, films such as Pawan Kalyan's 'OG', Jr NTR's 'Devara', Allu Arjun's 'Pushpa 2: The Rule', and Prabhas' 'Salaar' recorded strong first-day sales in the region. Now, 'Peddi' has entered the discussion with a powerful start, signaling a massive opening.
Apart from the USA, the film is also set for release in Singapore, Sri Lanka, and many other overseas markets. Additionally, reports indicate that more than 950 premiere shows are being planned across North America, expected to make it one of the biggest releases for a pan-India movie in the region.
Final Edit Locked
Speaking about the film, the makers recently announced that the final edit has been locked. This means they will now gear up for promotions across the country. The makers took to their X (formerly Twitter) handle to share a picture from the editing room, featuring the director and editor standing with folded hands, with Ram Charan's poster displayed on the screen behind them.
