Nani The Paradise Breaks Pawan Kalyan Mahesh Babu and Ram Charan Records
Nani’s much-awaited action drama The Paradise is creating a major buzz even before its theatrical release. Directed by Srikanth Odela, the film has generated strong advance-booking interest across India and overseas markets ahead of its September 24, 2026 release.
Massive Advance Bookings
The Paradise has reportedly crossed the $1.1 million mark in North American premiere pre-sales, giving Nani one of the biggest overseas pre-release milestones of his career.
The film has also recorded strong worldwide advance bookings, with reports putting its total pre-release sales at around ₹45 crore for premieres and the opening day.
In India, the movie has also witnessed impressive ticket sales. Advance bookings reportedly crossed several crore rupees before release, with thousands of tickets sold across major ticket-booking platforms.
Surpasses Major Telugu Star Films in Pre-Sales
The latest trade reports claim that The Paradise has moved ahead of several major Telugu releases in terms of advance-booking activity. Films associated with stars such as Pawan Kalyan, Mahesh Babu and Ram Charan are among the titles being compared with Nani’s upcoming movie.
Reports suggest that The Paradise had sold a huge number of tickets through major booking platforms even before its release. This has created considerable excitement around the film and raised expectations for its opening.
However, these comparisons are based on advance bookings and pre-sales. They should not be confused with final box-office collections. The actual theatrical record will depend on the film’s Day 1, opening weekend and lifetime earnings.
Nani Eyes His Biggest Opening
The strong pre-release response has increased expectations that The Paradise could deliver Nani’s biggest opening at the worldwide box office.
Trade estimates have suggested that the film could target a ₹50 crore-plus worldwide opening, potentially surpassing Nani’s previous opening-day benchmarks.
The movie has received an A certificate from the censor board and has a runtime of approximately 2 hours and 49 minutes.
Nani and Srikanth Odela Reunite
The Paradise marks Nani’s second collaboration with director Srikanth Odela after their successful film Dasara.
Unlike the rural backdrop of Dasara, The Paradise promises a darker and more intense action-drama setting. The film has been presented on a large scale and features Nani in a powerful new avatar.
The cast includes Kayadu Lohar, Raghav Juyal, Mohan Babu and Sonali Kulkarni. Music has been composed by Anirudh Ravichander, adding further anticipation among audiences.
Strong Buzz Before Release
The promotional campaign for The Paradise has generated significant attention, with its songs, posters and teaser material contributing to the growing hype.
Nani’s transformation and the film’s action-heavy presentation have become major talking points among Telugu cinema fans. The combination of Nani, Srikanth Odela and Anirudh Ravichander has also helped the movie attract attention beyond the traditional Nani audience.
Box Office Battle Begins
With The Paradise arriving in theatres on September 24, all eyes are now on its opening-day performance.
The advance-booking numbers indicate strong audience interest, but the final verdict will depend on the film’s theatrical collections after release. If the momentum continues, The Paradise could give Nani a significant new benchmark at the box office.
