Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor’s sports drama Peddi is expected to arrive on Netflix on July 2, 2026, in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada, though the date is yet to be officially confirmed. The Hindi version is reportedly slated for July 30 after completing its theatrical window. The film, a major box office hit, follows a village athlete’s journey through cricket, wrestling and para-track events.
Peddi created all kinds of controversisies soon as it landed in theatres. For many fans, that made it a must-watch movie. And if you want to check it out yourself, here we reveal Peddi OTT release date, when and where to watch Ram Charan, and Janhvi Kapoor, as well as its story, cast, and box office run so far. Well, to start off, the film is expected to land on Netflix in early July, according to multiple media reports, though neither the platform nor the makers have put out an official confirmation yet. What is confirmed is the streaming partner itself: Netflix's involvement was revealed back when the film was still running in theatres. The Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada versions of Peddi are expected to stream first, with the Hindi version reportedly held back until July 30, once the film clears its mandatory theatrical window.
While it is clear Netflix holds the post-theatrical streaming rights, the Peddi OTT release date for online streaming, according to a report from 123Telugu, is July 2, 2026, across its South Indian language versions. That date hasn't come from Netflix or the makers directly, and so it's worth treating as an expectation rather than a confirmed fact until either side puts out an official word.
Directed by Buchi Babu Sana, Peddi story is all about a gifted athlete from a small village in Andhra Pradesh whose talent refuses to stay confined to one sport. He starts out as a cricketer who is so good that rival villages pay to have him play for them, before a wrestling mentor named Gournaidu spots something bigger in him and trains him into a feared local wrestler known as Peddi Pehelwan.
A rival ends that chapter with a career-shattering injury, but Peddi refuses to let defeat define him. Reinventing himself once more as a para-track athlete, training on a prosthetic blade, he keeps pushing for recognition, both for himself and for a hometown the government has never officially acknowledged. Running alongside all of it is a steady romance with Achiyamma, played by Janhvi Kapoor.
Ram Charan headlines the film opposite Janhvi Kapoor, in what marks the first time the two have shared the screen. Backing them up is a strong supporting cast, with Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, Boman Irani, Divyenndu Sharma and Ravi Kishan all playing key roles. Venkata Satish Kilaru produced the film under his Vriddhi Cinemas banner, with music composed by Academy Award winner A.R. Rahman.
Critics were split on Peddi, but that didn't stop audiences from showing up in big numbers. The film had a strong theatrical run and has emerged as one of Telugu cinema's biggest commercial hits of 2026. Sacnilk puts its 25-day net collection in India at ₹240.14 crore, with a worldwide gross of ₹336.85 crore, including ₹52.90 crore from overseas markets. With its theatrical run winding down, attention now shifts to exactly when Peddi will land on Netflix.
