'The Paradise' Crosses ₹100 Crore Worldwide in 3 Days; Team Celebrates at Grand Success Meet

Summary: Fast-Paced Box Office Run Outpaces Mixed Audience Feedback

Natural Star Nani's gritty action-drama The Paradise has officially shattered the ₹100 crore worldwide gross barrier within just three days of release. Re-teaming with director Srikanth Odela after their hit Dasara, Nani achieved his career-highest opening weekend numbers.

To mark the commercial milestone and address the intense online discourse surrounding the film's polarizing reception, the cast and crew gathered for an energetic Success Meet in Hyderabad on September 26.

Despite generating mixed feedback from critics and audiences regarding its dark tone and pacing, The Paradise showed massive front-loaded strength at the box office. Starting with Wednesday night previews and expanding on Thursday, September 24, the film posted a staggering Day 1 global gross in the range of ₹70–76 crore. By Saturday (Day 3), tracking sources reported total domestic net collections reaching ₹76.40 crore (₹90.50 crore domestic gross). Combined with ₹29 crore from overseas markets, official trade data pegged the 3-day worldwide gross at ₹119.50 crore (with producer claims citing ₹136 crore gross).

At the film's Success Meet on September 26, Nani directly addressed the divided reactions surrounding the movie, describing the public chatter as a massive "storm". He emphasized that extreme responses prove the audience's deep engagement, celebrating the fact that The Paradise has dominated movie discussions nationwide. Joining him on stage were director Srikanth Odela, veteran actor Mohan Babu, female lead Kayadu Lohar, and co-stars Priyadarshi and Sampoornesh Babu, who shared insights into the rigorous shooting conditions required to bring the 1980s Secunderabad-set drama to life.
