Peddi Smashes Box‑Office Records, Hits ₹200 Crore in Just 10 Days

It’s been a whirlwind ten days for the Ram Charan‑led action‑drama Peddi. The film, which opened to thunderous applause across the southern states, has now racked up more than ₹200 crore at the Indian box office – a figure that puts it in a very exclusive club.

On day 10, the movie pulled in roughly ₹30 crore, nudging the cumulative total from a solid ₹170 crore after nine days to the coveted ₹200‑crore mark. The momentum hasn’t faded; in fact, trade analyst Suresh Kumar notes that the weekend bounce helped the film stay above the ₹25 crore‑a‑day threshold, a feat rarely seen outside the pan‑India mega‑hits.

“Peddi’s performance is a testament to the star power of Ram Charan and the resonance of the story with audiences,” Kumar added, emphasizing that the film’s strong hold in smaller towns contributed heavily to its numbers. In the major metros, the film logged impressive per‑screen averages of ₹2.5‑₹3 crore, while the multiplexes in Tier‑2 cities saw footfalls that were simply “off the charts,” according to theatre owner Ravindra Patil.

Beyond the domestic tally, the overseas figures are worth a mention. The film has already crossed the $2 million mark in key markets such as the United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and the United States, translating to an additional ₹15‑₹18 crore. When you stack the overseas earnings on top of the domestic haul, the worldwide gross edges close to ₹220 crore.

What makes Peddi’s achievement especially noteworthy is that it’s a regional production—primarily in Telugu—yet it managed to compete head‑to‑head with Hindi‑language blockbusters that dominate the box‑office landscape. The success underlines a shifting tide where audiences are increasingly embracing strong narratives, regardless of language.

Producer Nithin Reddy expressed his delight, saying, “We never imagined hitting this milestone so quickly. The love and support from fans across India and abroad have been overwhelming. We’re grateful to everyone who believed in this film.”

As the film looks set to run for another two weeks, the buzz is already shifting to its next potential milestone: crossing the ₹250 crore threshold. If the current trend holds, Peddi could very well finish its theatrical run among the top‑five highest‑grossing Indian films of the year.
