Peddi Synopsis, Cast & Crew
Directed by Buchi Babu Sana, Peddi also stars Janhvi Kapoor, Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu and Divyenndu in key roles. Peddi grossed over Rs 340 crore worldwide but triggered widespread backlash over the hypersexualisation of Jahnvi Kapoor. The brunt of the force led to re-edits and trimming of the film. Peddi is set in 1980s Andhra Pradesh, in which the male lead battles systemic oppression and fights to secure basic legal recognition, voting rights, and a railway station for his nameless tribal hamlet through sporting glory.
The film is produced by Venkatesh Satish Kilaru under Vriddhi Cinemas and co-produced by Ishan Saksena under IVY Entertainment and presented by Mythri Movie Makers and Sukumar Writing.
