Legendary actor Chiranjeevi recently spoke about his son Ram Charan's close call with an eye injury during the film's shoot. Chiranjeevi recalled how Ram Charan required eight stitches and could have lost his eye if the injury had been in a different location.
Chiranjeevi praised Ram Charan's dedication to his craft, saying that despite being born into privilege, he chooses to perform his own stunts and work hard for his films. Chiranjeevi witnessed Ram Charan's rigorous training routine firsthand and commended his dedication.
The incident reminded Chiranjeevi of his own father's worries when he performed a risky stunt on a moving train. Chiranjeevi shared that his father's words, 'You will understand a father's anguish only when you have a son who becomes a hero and endures such hardships,' came back to him when he saw Ram Charan's commitment to hard work.
Peddi, Ram Charan's latest film, has been a success at the box office, collecting ₹322 crore worldwide despite receiving mixed reviews from critics.
