At the grand trailer launch of Peddi, actor Ram Charan had nothing but glowing words for his co-star Janhvi Kapoor, whom he fondly described as a true “chhupa rustam” for silently preparing behind the scenes and eventually stunning everyone with her performance in the film. Janhvi’s striking transformation in Peddi has already become one of the biggest talking points surrounding the project, with audiences eager to witness her in a completely raw and never-seen-before avatar.
Speaking candidly about their experience working together, Ram Charan revealed that the film Peddi schedule had been extremely demanding, with the team shooting continuously for nearly 85 days before eventually filming a major song sequence. Despite the hectic routine, the actor admitted he barely had time to prepare for the performance-heavy track. However, Janhvi’s dedication left him deeply impressed.
“I didn’t even have enough time to rehearse for the song, but she came in and performed it a hundred times better than me,” Ram Charan shared during the Peddi trailer event, instantly sparking excitement among fans about the fresh chemistry the duo will bring to the screen.
Praising her discipline and commitment further, the actor called Janhvi a hidden powerhouse of talent. “She’s truly a chhupa rustam. Quietly learning, practicing, and preparing in Mumbai without making any noise about it. I have rarely seen someone this sincere and hardworking,” he said. According to Ram Charan, Peddi demanded absolute honesty, emotional depth, and relentless effort from every actor involved, and Janhvi exceeded expectations on every front.
The moment turned emotional when Ram Charan reflected on the nostalgic connection attached to the film, recalling how his father and legendary actress Sridevi had shared a memorable cinematic legacy together. Ending on a heartfelt note, he assured audiences that the fresh pairing of him and Janhvi in Peddi “will definitely not disappoint” fans.
