When Ram Charan once said: "One lifetime is not enough to explore the beauty of Kashmir"

The recent terror attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, claimed the lives of dozens of innocent people and cast a shadow over the region known for its breathtaking beauty and rich cultural legacy. Throwback to the time, when 'RRR' star Ram Charan visited Srinagar last year, representing the film industry at the 'Film Tourism for Economic and Cultural Preservation' event at the Sher-i-Kashmir International Convention Centre (SKICC).
At the event, Ram Charan spoke passionately about his personal connection to Kashmir. He reminisced about visiting the valley as a child with his father, legendary actor Chiranjeevi, and called Kashmir "the coolest place to shoot in India."
During the event, Ram Charan was honoured with a traditional Kashmir shawl.

He said, "It will sound cliche, but the coolest place to shoot in India is Kashmir. I am a second-generation actor. My dad has shot extensively in Kashmir, the actor, son of cinema veteran Chiranjeevi. There is something about this place. One lifetime is not enough to explore the beauty of Kashmir."
In response to the attack, Ram Charan expressed his shock and sadness on social media, stating that such incidents have no place in society and must be strongly condemned.
The 'Game Changer' actor on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, "Shocked and saddened by the terror attack in Pahalgam. Such incidents have no place in our society and should be strongly condemned. My prayers are with the families of those affected."
Other South Indian stars, including Chiranjeevi, Jr NTR, and Allu Arjun, also voiced their sorrow and solidarity with the victims.
On the working front, Ram Charan is working on his upcoming film, 'Peddi' directed by Buchi Babu Sana. The movie is a rural sports drama and features Janhvi Kapoor as the female lead. It is announced to hit the theatres on March 27, 2026.
