Actor Janhvi Kapoor offers prayers at Tirumala temple as Peddi releases

Peddi Movie Review and Release Live Updates: ‘Ram Charan is s*xually lusting over her all the time’: Fans express disgust over objectification of Janhvi Kapoor

Many fans have been asking why the censorship board said nothing while Janhvi was being objectified and sexualised in 'Peddi'. They feel that if the board can take action against gore and violence in films like Obsession, it should also speak up when women are shown poorly on screen. People also noticed that Ram Charan's character was not just attracted to her but was openly lusting after her. Since Janhvi's character has no real purpose in the film, both the actor and director Buchi Babu Sana have been called out for this.

One fan wrote, "A goon undresses #JanhviKapoor in public to shame her amid election campaign #Dibyendu starts laughing, enjoying #RamCharan is sexually lusting over her all the time and is called the hero of the village. He beats the pulp out of those goons Crap level Sexual objectifying elements, disaster portrayal heroism." Another wrote, "In one scene from #Peddi, #RamCharan compliments #JanhviKapoor. He describes her eyes, scene then cuts to show her breasts. He describes her lips, then cuts to show her waist. To Editor, are you really that clueless that you don't know what eyes & lips are?". A person expressed, "the heroine deserved a character. Instead she got a string of vulgar, degrading, objectifying scenes stitched together and called a role. It ain't bold.. it ain't glamorous.. it's just poor & cringe writing.. a complete embarrassment to every women in the audience." Echoing the same sentiment, a user wrote, "It's high time they stop sexualising heroines in film. Literally there's a scene where hero describes her face but they show her waist and chest. Wtf was that." Another user also took a dig at the censor board, writing, "Jhanvi scenes in the first half are outright vulgar and crass.. but obsession mathram censor chesestham.. luchas @CBFC_India."

'Peddi' review: 'A watchable commercial entertainer'

A Twitter review reads, "#Peddi A watchable commercial entertainer with an honest story that works in parts despite its regular template narration! The first half is fairly average with template commercial elements, and Jahnvi’s track doesn’t work. However, the stretch from the pre-interval to the end of Massa Massa is the film’s biggest highlight and is executed well. Post that, the film drags with ups and downs, though the climax is wrapped up neatly. Ram Charan is terrific and clearly carries the film. His transformation and effort are evident throughout. ARR’s music works well and is another highlight. Buchi Babu Sana succeeds in presenting an honest story, but the screenplay and editing could have been better. Has its share of flaws, but can be watched with expectations in check for Ram Charan’s performance, the music, and the honest story. Rating: 2.75/5"
