Ram Charan, along with the other members of the movie Peddi, arrived in Bhopal on Saturday for the music launch event of the film. The Buchi Babu Sana directorial also features Jahnvi Kapoor in the lead role and will hit the big screens on June 4 in multiple languages. Several photos and videos from the film's music launch have gone viral.

While the songs from the movie have not been discussed much, netizens have been widely circulating videos of Ram Charan and his back-to-back goof-ups at the event. In a now viral clip, the actor could be heard singing high praises of bowler Jasprit Bumrah while mistaking him for a footballer. He later had to take to his X (formerly Twitter) account to apologise to the ace Indian cricketer.

Ram Charan Hasan is a good actor he knew nobody in North knows about Peddi or care about this film so he chose to create some buzz my calling Bumrah as our football player and Bhopal as Bihar. #Peddi

At the Bhopal event itself, Ram Charan first called Jasprit Bumrah a "footballer" ?

And then he started calling MP people "Biharis"??

Not just once, he said it 3-4 times. Later the anchor tried saving him with random logic that he got love from both Bihar and MP ? pic.twitter.com/6QwCDRcAl8

FROM ‘BIHAR’ TO ‘FOOTBALL’… WHAT AN EMBARRASSMENT…

EXACTLY WHY THINGS MUST NEVER BE FORCED.

IF THIS IS THE PLANNING THEN I’M AFRAID ABOUT THE FILM… ?

He doubled down on his gaffe by again calling the audience ‘people from Bihar’ and thanking them for their support. When the actor mentioned the same for the third time, his co-star Jahnvi Kapoor gently nudged him and signalled his mistake. The host of the event tried to cover up the situation, but the audience was already in splits by then.

Uff… I’m genuinely so forgetful with names sometimes.

Apologies to @Jaspritbumrah93 Ji for the mix-up - it was a genuine human error in the middle of all the excitement and the crowd ??

I truly respect you and I am a huge fan of your game. You make every Indian feel proud when…
