Ram Charan and director Sukumar are teaming up once again for a highly anticipated project that is set to go on floors in July 2026. The duo last worked together on Rangasthalam, a cult blockbuster that redefined rustic storytelling in Telugu cinema and became a historic success at the box office.
Sources close to the development have confirmed that Sukumar has already begun work on the script and is aggressively shaping the narrative. The film is currently in its pre production phase, with Sukumar’s core team kicking off the groundwork well in advance to ensure a smooth and expansive shoot.
Script Work And Pre Production In Full Swing
Sukumar is writing the script at the moment, and his team is actively handling pre production duties. This project will begin right after the release of Peddi and is said to be a brilliant script. Ram Charan is reportedly very excited about the collaboration, as is Sukumar. The film will be shot over a period of one year starting from July 2026.
The lengthy shooting schedule indicates the scale and ambition behind this reunion. When a director like Sukumar commits to a one year shoot, it means audiences can expect something truly special on screen.
Ram Charan Thrilled To Work With Sukumar Again
Ram Charan, who is currently riding high on a series of pan Indian projects, is super thrilled to collaborate again with the Pushpa director. Sukumar gave him one of the most celebrated roles of his career with Rangasthalam, and the actor is eager to recreate that magic. Insiders confirm that Charan has been closely following script discussions and is leaving no stone unturned to give his 100 percent under Sukumar’s direction.
The actor’s commitment to the project is evident from the fact that he has already blocked his calendar for an entire year. This level of dedication shows how much faith both the actor and director have in this collaboration.
A Grand Scale Film With Intense Drama
The untitled film is expected to be mounted on a grand scale. It will feature intense drama and Sukumar’s trademark layered characters that audiences have come to love. This reunion promises to be one of the most awaited Telugu projects in the coming years.
Given Sukumar’s recent success with the Pushpa franchise and Ram Charan’s massive pan Indian appeal, this collaboration has all the ingredients to become a major cinematic event.
Ram Charan’s Current Project Peddi Releases In March 2026
Before starting the Sukumar film, Ram Charan will complete and release Peddi. The film is a rural sports action drama directed by Buchi Babu Sana of Uppena fame. Set against a rural backdrop, the star cast includes Janhvi Kapoor as the female lead, along with Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, and Divyenndu Sharma in key roles.
Backed by Vriddhi Cinemas and presented by Mythri Movie Makers, Peddi features music by A.R. Rahman and is slated for theatrical release on March 27, 2026. Once this film releases, Ram Charan will immediately shift his focus to the Sukumar directorial.
