Nani’s The Paradise Advance Bookings Cross ₹12 Crore

Nani’s The Paradise Advance Bookings Cross ₹12 Crore

Nani’s The Paradise has made an impressive start at the box office even before its theatrical release, with advance bookings recording strong numbers in India and overseas markets. Despite facing a demanding post-production schedule, the team reportedly completed the remaining work in time and successfully launched ticket sales three days ahead of the film’s release.

The makers obtained the required permissions and government order from the Telangana government, clearing the way for advance bookings across the state. The early response has been encouraging, with the film reportedly selling one lakh tickets in the Nizam region shortly after reservations opened.

Worldwide advance sales have crossed the ₹12 crore mark, giving The Paradise significant momentum ahead of its opening day. The total is expected to rise further when bookings become fully available across Andhra Pradesh. The initial demand indicates considerable interest among audiences and could help the film secure a powerful opening.

The Paradise posts strong overseas pre-sales

The film’s overseas release is also progressing according to schedule. The production team dispatched the required prints on time, ensuring that the planned international premieres would not be affected by the tight completion window.

North American pre-sales have reportedly crossed $600,000, reflecting strong anticipation among Telugu moviegoers abroad. Additional bookings are expected to open across more locations as the release approaches, potentially pushing the overseas advance-sales total higher.

The strong response is especially important for a major Telugu release, as North America remains one of the most influential international markets for the industry. Positive premiere reports and early audience reactions could further shape the film’s opening-weekend performance.

Nani and team complete a demanding final schedule

The smooth release rollout followed an intense final phase involving lead actor Nani, director Srikanth Odela and producer Sudhakar Cherukuri. The core team reportedly worked continuously over the past several days to complete the pending technical work, secure permissions and coordinate the domestic and international release.

Concerns had earlier emerged over whether the film would be ready on schedule because of the limited time available. However, the makers adopted an aggressive execution plan and managed to keep the theatrical release and overseas premieres on track.

The Paradise has generated considerable attention because it reunites Nani with Srikanth Odela after Dasara. Expectations surrounding their latest collaboration have contributed to the robust advance-booking numbers.

The makers are now preparing for the film’s pre-release event, which is scheduled to take place on September 21. With one lakh tickets already sold in Nizam, worldwide advance sales crossing ₹12 crore and North American pre-sales exceeding $600,000, The Paradise is heading towards its theatrical debut with strong box-office momentum.

Two Sankranthi directors- lot of talk, less work

Both films released this Sankranthi and went on a strong run at the box office.  While both these films are hits, there’s very little to attribute this success to the directors.  Veera Simha Reddy ran more on Balakrishna’s mass appeal and his trademark mass sequences. There’s very little on story freshness front.
