Nani’s ‘The Paradise’ to be released in two parts? Here’s what we know! |

The upcoming film ‘The Paradise’, starring Nani and directed by Srikanth Odela. This action thriller, set in 1980s Secunderabad will give a raw and powerful take on societal prejudice and oppression.
As per a recent 123Telugu report, ‘The Paradise’ might be released in two parts, following the trend of big-budget films in Tollywood. While the first part is confirmed for March 26, 2026, details about the second instalment remain under wraps.
The film follows the story of a marginalized tribe that has been stripped of its rights. Their struggle for recognition is led by an unexpected figure, often referred to as “a bastard,” who challenges the oppressive system. The story focuses on how leadership is not defined by identity.Director Srikanth Odela looks to present these themes in their rawest form, breaking away from the typical storytelling approach in Indian cinema. This is the second collaboration between Srikanth Odela and Nani after their super hit ‘Dasara’.
The teaser shared by the makers recently features Nani in a rugged and intense avatar. The film’s dark and mysterious tone is accompanied by Anirudh Ravichander‘s score.

Recently during a chat with Variety, Nani called ‘The Paradise’ to India’s version of ‘Mad Max’. During the same interview, he stated, “This time, we are not blurring or masking societal taboos. As a filmmaker, I am committed to presenting the film in its rawest form. ‘The Paradise’ will stand as one of the most authentic, original and unapologetically honest Indian films, carrying immense potential and relevance to resonate with a global audience.”
