Actor Ram Charan had to hit pause on his upcoming film, ‘Peddi,’ which he was shooting in the scenic city of Mysuru. Production came to an unexpected halt due to a personal matter. Amidst this temporary break, the beloved star took time to meet with Karnataka’s Chief Minister, Siddaramaiah.
Filming for ‘Peddi’ was moving along quickly in Mysuru. However, a sad family event caused the delay. Ram Charan’s close relative, actor Allu Arjun, experienced the loss of his grandmother. Out of respect and to be with his loved ones, Ram Charan stepped away from the set for a while. It was during this period that his meeting with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah took place.
A High-Profile Handshake
Pictures of Ram Charan and Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s meeting spread quickly across social media. The images show Ram Charan respectfully presenting a bouquet of flowers to the Chief Minister. They engaged in a friendly conversation, making for some noteworthy photos.
Both prominent figures also shared their thoughts on the meeting. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah posted on X (formerly Twitter) about the encounter. He wrote, “Met Telugu actor Ram Charan today in Mysuru, had a long conversation. He is currently shooting for the film ‘Peddi’.”
Ram Charan also took to X to express his gratitude to the Chief Minister. He tweeted, acknowledging the warm welcome.
Thank you, Hon’ble CM @siddaramaiah Garu.
It’s always a pleasure shooting in Karnataka and I truly appreciate the warm hospitality. It was an honour to meet you 🙏 https://t.co/z85S2IG1V7
