The group Japanese fans also visited the locations in Hyderabad where Ram Charan's film Magadheera has been shot, including Golkonda Fort. They took pictures and videos on the spot. Calling it the Kanmani Tour, the Japanese fans shared their wish for the actor's movies - Game Changer and the upcoming Peddi - to release in Japan's cinema halls with subtitles.

The actor will next feature in Buchi Babu Sana's sports drama Peddi. Janhvi Kapoor plays the leading lady opposite Ram Charan. His rustic makeover for the village set film and the standout cricket shots have sparked a wave of reactions online. “The film is a combination of real and fictional tales from a village. I always aspire to tell stories that are rooted because I feel that’s where more people can resonate with the core emotion and incidents,” the director said about Peddi.
