Peddi OTT official release date: Where and when to watch Ram Charan's Telugu sports drama with a revised runtime for streaming

Ram Charan's Peddi has completed its theatrical run and is now preparing for its digital release. While many fans have been waiting for the film to arrive on OTT, another detail has also become a talking point ahead of its streaming debut. The version that will be available online will not be exactly the same as the one audiences first watched in theatres, with Netflix confirming a revised runtime for the film.

When and where to watch Peddi on OTT

The sports drama will begin streaming on Netflix from July 9 in South Indian languages. The OTT release gives viewers who missed the theatrical run a chance to watch the film from home, while those who have already seen it in cinemas can check out the revised version now arriving on the platform.

With its digital premiere, Peddi will also look to reach a wider audience beyond its theatrical run.

Netflix to stream the final cut

Ahead of the OTT release, many fans were curious about which version of Peddi would be made available on Netflix. The film originally released in theatres with a runtime of 3 hours and 9 minutes, as per 123Telugu.

After its theatrical release, the makers reportedly made a few additions and trims, resulting in an updated version. Netflix has now listed the runtime as 3 hours and 5 minutes, confirming that the platform will stream the film's final cut instead of the original theatrical version.

The runtime update has added to the anticipation among fans, who are now expected to look out for the changes made before the digital release.

What is Peddi about?

Directed by Buchi Babu Sana, Peddi is a sports drama told across two timelines. The story follows a talented athlete from a remote tribal village who faces discrimination, personal tragedy and a career-ending injury before rebuilding his life as a para-athlete.

His journey eventually helps his village receive official recognition while also inspiring a nationwide grassroots sports movement. The film blends sports, drama and emotion against a rural backdrop.

Cast and crew

Ram Charan plays the lead role, while Janhvi Kapoor stars as the female lead. The supporting cast includes Shiva Rajkumar, Divyenndu Sharma, Jagapathi Babu and Boman Irani in pivotal roles.

The film has been produced by Vriddhi Cinemas, with music composed by A.R. Rahman. Both the soundtrack and background score received a positive response from audiences following the theatrical release.

Peddi recorded strong collections in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka during its theatrical run. However, its performance in some other markets and overseas was comparatively mixed.
