In Hindi, Ram Charan's last release Gam Changer witnessed a good opening of over ₹8 crore. This time around, Bobby Deol's Bandar and Varun Dhawan, Mrunal Thakur and Pooja Hegde's Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai will give competition to Peddi in the Hindi belts, not just for collections but for screens too.

About the movie, director Buchi Babu Sana said, “Peddi is an emotional journey. It is about how a sportsperson earns identity and respect and influences the people around him. Peddi faces setbacks, falls several times, but rises stronger every time. How he overcomes those challenges forms the heart of the story." The movie also stars Janhvi Kapoor and Divyenndu.
