Ram Charan has made a strong comeback at the box office with Peddi. The sports drama, directed by Buchi Babu Sana, opened in theatres on June 4 and delivered an impressive start both in India and overseas. Riding on strong pre-release buzz and the actor's popularity, the film crossed the Rs 100-crore mark worldwide on its first day itself.Peddi box office collection day-wiseAccording to early estimates shared by Sacnilk, Peddi earned around Rs 51 crore net in India on its opening day. The film was screened across 12,412 shows nationwide and attracted a large audience, particularly in Telugu-speaking states. Including paid preview shows, the film's India net collection has reached Rs 69.50 crore, while its India gross stands at Rs 82.49 crore.The film also performed well internationally. Overseas markets contributed approximately Rs 30 crore gross, taking the worldwide gross collection to Rs 112.49 crore on Day 1. With this achievement, Peddi has entered the exclusive list of Telugu films that have crossed Rs 100 crore globally on their opening day.The strong opening was not entirely unexpected. Even before its official release, the film had generated huge momentum through advance bookings and paid preview screenings. Reports suggest that Peddi had already collected close to Rs 40 crore worldwide before its first full day in theatres. The solid turnout on Thursday helped the film comfortably move past the Rs 100-crore milestone.For Ram Charan, the success carries added importance. Since the blockbuster success of RRR, the actor has been looking for another major theatrical hit. While RRR brought him worldwide recognition and became one of the biggest Indian films of all time, his subsequent release Game Changer failed to live up to expectations at the box office. As a result, industry watchers were closely monitoring the performance of Peddi.The opening numbers indicate that audiences have responded positively to the film's arrival. Peddi has now become Ram Charan's second film to cross Rs 100 crore worldwide on its opening day after RRR. Directed by SS Rajamouli and co-starring Jr NTR, RRR had recorded a staggering global opening of around Rs 223 crore.More about PeddiMost of Peddi's collections have come from the Telugu version. The film witnessed strong footfalls across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where fans celebrated its release with special screenings, festive gatherings, and packed theatres. The enthusiasm around the film was visible from the early morning shows itself.Trade analysts have also pointed out that the film's initial performance is significantly stronger than that of Game Changer. Despite higher ticket prices in several regions, audiences turned up in large numbers, helping the film post one of the biggest openings in recent Telugu cinema.Apart from Ram Charan, Peddi features Janhvi Kapoor, Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, Boman Irani and Divyenndu in key roles. The sports drama was among the most anticipated releases of the year, and its opening-day numbers suggest that the excitement surrounding the film has translated into box-office success.With a strong first day behind it and the weekend still ahead, industry experts believe Peddi is expected to continue its winning run. If the current trend continues, the film could finish its opening weekend with worldwide collections between Rs 200 crore and Rs 250 crore, giving Ram Charan a much-needed blockbuster and providing another major success story for the Telugu film industry.
