Director Buchi Babu was one of the most talked-about makers before the release of Peddi. Thanks to the massive buzz around Ram Charan’s film, he enjoyed tremendous popularity among movie lovers. Many believed Peddi would take his career to the next level.

While the film performed well in several areas, a section pointed out certain flaws in the story and screenplay. Adding to that, the controversy involving Janhvi Kapoor became a major talking point and indirectly affected the film.

But Buchi Babu handled the criticism maturely and openly apologized, earning appreciation from many. Now, attention has shifted towards his next project. Interestingly, there is plenty of buzz but no official announcement yet.

Before Peddi was released, reports suggested that Buchi Babu was in talks to direct Mahesh Babu. Later, another report claimed that he would once again team up with Ram Charan. However, neither of those films has materialized so far.

The latest speculation is that Buchi Babu is developing a script for Megastar Chiranjeevi. While the news has generated excitement among fans, there has been no official confirmation from either side.

At a time when young directors are lining up back-to-back projects, many feel Buchi Babu should speed things up and announce his next film soon. His talent is unquestionable, but now fans are eagerly waiting for concrete updates rather than rumors.
