Telugu star Ram Charan is gearing up for the release of his film 'Peddi' on June 4, where he portrays a character that requires extreme physical transformations. Charan revealed that he had to adapt his body twice: first to achieve a lean physique akin to cricketers like Tilak Varma and Hardik Pandya, and later to bulk up for a wrestling role. Despite enjoying the transformation process, he admitted that the physical toll has been significant, stating, 'Even lifting my daughter hurts this hand.' He explained that constant wrestling during filming has led to pain in his hand, prompting thoughts of getting an X-ray. Director Buchi Babu Sana noted that the wrestlers on set often reverted to their instincts, wrestling whenever the director called 'action.' Remarkably, the team completed filming without major injuries, which Charan credits to divine intervention. 'Peddi' is produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru and features a star-studded cast, including Janhvi Kapoor and Jagapathi Babu, focusing on a man's quest for identity through sports.
