When RGV is around, there is no dearth of sensationalism and controversy. Some call him a channel tiger and others call him controversy’s favourite child, but when it comes to Ram Gopal Varma, there can never be dull moments.
The latest buzz about him is that he is making a movie titled Jaga Mondi, which means obstinate. If sources close to Ramu are to be believed, this movie is about YS Jagan and his struggles. And everyone knows how strong willed Jagan is. But, this film may be a politics based one and it would focus on Jagan’s pathway to CMhood. If sources are to be believed, some politics from Kadapa are funding and financing this project. The idea, so goes the buzz, is to present him as a tough hero.
If it’s Jagan’s story, then Sonia Gandhi is bound to be there. In fact, Jagan’s fight was against the domination by Sonia Gandhi. While RGV is known to bring look-alikes for key roles like that of Veerappan, NTR and others, this time around, he is rumoured to be looking at a star from the Hindi film world. The idea is to give a pan-Indian profile to the film.
The buzz in the social media is that Ramu is looking towards Kangana Ranaut for Sonia’s role. If sources close to Raju are to be believed, the original idea was to look for an Italian performer. But, will Kangana agree to do this role? Is this proposition confirmed? If ever this happens, it would be casting coup of sorts.

Peddi’s OTT Edit Wins Audience Approval
Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor’s Peddi has finally made its OTT debut on Netflix and is receiving a positive response from viewers. Since its digital premiere, audiences have been appreciating the film’s performances and emotional narrative, with Janhvi Kapoor’s role also drawing a more favorable reaction than it did during the theatrical run.
One of the biggest talking points surrounding the OTT version is the re-edited market sequence involving Janhvi Kapoor. During the film’s theatrical release, the scene attracted widespread criticism, with many viewers and media outlets accusing the makers of unnecessarily objectifying the actress. The sequence quickly became a subject of social media trolling and generated considerable negative publicity for the film.
For the Netflix version, the makers have trimmed and reworked the controversial portions, resulting in a more balanced presentation. The revised scene has been welcomed by viewers, with many social media users commenting that the changes make the narrative flow better while avoiding the criticism that surrounded the original version.
The latest response has also reignited discussions about the film’s theatrical release. Many viewers believe that if these edits had been incorporated before the film hit cinemas, Peddi might have received a much more positive reception from the outset. Director Buchi Babu Sana had earlier faced criticism over the sequence and publicly apologized following the controversy.
With the revised version now streaming, the conversation has shifted toward the film’s strengths. Ram Charan’s powerful performance is once again earning praise, and audiences appear to be focusing more on the story and emotional core of the film rather than the controversy that overshadowed its theatrical release.
The positive reception on OTT suggests that Peddi is finding a fresh audience, giving the film a second innings through its digital release.
