The Telugu-speaking regions once again emerged as the film’s biggest strength. Andhra Pradesh and Telangana together contributed an estimated Rs 25 crore gross on Day 2, accounting for the majority of the film’s daily earnings.
Occupancy numbers reflected this dominance. The Telugu version recorded an overall occupancy of 48.81 percent, steadily rising through the day and peaking at over 60 percent during night shows.
While dubbed versions in Kannada and Tamil witnessed comparatively lower footfalls, they still added to the film’s overall tally. The strong response in its home market has ensured that Peddi remains firmly on track for another successful weekend.
Set in rural Andhra Pradesh during the 1980s, the film follows a determined villager who uses the power of sports to unite his community and defend its honour against a formidable rival. The film has also earned praise for its striking visuals and emotional storytelling, with cinematography emerging as one of its most appreciated aspects.
