Divyenndu Sharma to make Telugu debut in 'Peddi' alongside Ram Charan

‘Mirzapur’ star Divyenndu Sharma is gearing up to make his Telugu debut in the upcoming sports action drama, ‘Peddi,’ alongside Ram Charan. As the actor will be donning the menacing character of Rambujji, he recently shared his excitement about being part of the film.

Divyenndu fell in love with filmmaking again

While speaking with The Hollywood Reporter India, Divyenndu shared that he fell in love with filmmaking again. He said, “I'm extremely excited for ‘Peddi’. Going to Telugu cinema gave me such a fresh feeling because I was the new kid again, trying to comprehend a new language and culture. I fell in love with filmmaking all over again. I'm even speaking Telugu in the film! It wasn't easy; I had to mug up big lines.” Talking more about the movie, he also mentioned the difference he noticed working on a Telugu project. “It’s a period film with a specific dialect, and Telugu doesn't have many pauses, it’s quite breathless. I joked with them that we need to introduce some pauses! But I cracked it by giving the character a high-status lineage, which dictated a certain way of speaking,” he added.
