Chikiri Gains Strong Early Response Ahead of Peddi’s Release

Alongside the concert buzz, the Peddi team acknowledged the swift rise of their first single, Chikiri. Released just a day earlier, the track crossed 46 million views across languages, making it one of the biggest early hits for a Telugu film this year. The song’s upbeat rhythm, Rahman’s familiar touch, and a simple hook step from Ram Charan have helped it travel fast on social media.

Janhvi’s presence in the video has also drawn attention, with many fans praising the on-screen chemistry. At the venue, the team appeared pleased with the response and hinted that the remaining songs would follow a similar tone. With the film set for release in March 2026, the strong start for Chikiri has pushed expectations higher, adding another layer of anticipation to Rahman’s return to Telugu cinema.
