The first poster captures Janhvi standing atop a jeep equipped with loudspeakers, waving to a crowd at what appears to be a lively village fair. In the second, she’s seen performing passionately near a microphone - a frame that radiates raw energy and charm.

Ram Charan himself amplified the reveal by sharing the posters on his social media, instantly sparking fan discussions and theories about Achiyyamma’s character.

Fans React: Is Achiyyamma a Rural Singer?

Within minutes of the posters going live, fans began speculating about Janhvi’s role. Many believe she portrays a singer rooted in rural traditions. One comment read, “Heroine - lead singer in Singing Troop (part of Village festival events).” (sic)

Another wrote, “I think she is playing singer character in Rural areas.” (sic)

While some amused fans poked fun at the old-school name, saying, “Ma pakkaintlo bammagari peru kuda adhe (The grandma who lives next to me is also named that).” (sic)

Others playfully imagined a cinematic romance, quipping, “Peddi weds Achiyyamma.” (sic)

Several fans also pointed out that Janhvi’s look bore a passing resemblance to her appearance in Devara, adding to the intrigue.
