The makers of director Srikanth Odela’s eagerly awaited action entertainer ‘The Paradise’, featuring Telugu star Nani in the lead, on Wednesday announced that the film would now hit screens worldwide on August 21 this year. It may be recalled that ‘The Paradise’, which is backed by SLV Cinemas, was originally set for a grand release on March 26, 2026.
The new date picked by the unit for the release thrusts The Paradise straight into a rare three-week festival wave. The first week gets a strong mid-week boost with Onam and Milad-un-Nabi, followed by Raksha Bandhan in the second weekend, and Janmashtami in the third.
For a high-budget spectacle of this scale, this extended holiday stretch offers an exceptional runway at the box office.
Meanwhile, the team is currently shooting one of the film’s biggest highlights- Nani’s explosive introduction song, set on a gigantic set with hundreds of dancers. Rockstar Anirudh Ravichander has composed an intense, high-voltage mass number that matches Nani’s raw, energetic style. Choreographer Sudhan Master is crafting large-scale, dynamic visuals to turn the song into a complete crowd-pleaser.
Sources in the film unit say that Nani is turning up the heat on the sets of his ambitious film ‘The Paradise’. Shooting, they point out, is progressing at a brisk pace.
