In Brief

  1. Production banner SLV Cinemas announced that The Paradise achieved a worldwide gross collection of ₹136 crore within three days of its release.
  2. The 3-day figure surpassed Nani's previous highest lifetime box office record of ₹119.48 crore set by HIT: The Third Case in 2025.
  3. The film generated ₹88 crore on its opening day, followed by ₹26 crore on day two and ₹22 crore on day three.

Production company Sri Lakshmi Venkateswara (SLV) Cinemas confirmed on September 27, 2026, that director Srikanth Odela's action drama The Paradise grossed ₹136 crore globally during its opening three-day weekend. The film opened in theaters on Thursday across eight languages—including Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, English, and Spanish—generating ₹88 crore on day one, ₹26 crore on day two, and ₹22 crore on day three.

The 3-day global collection makes The Paradise the highest-grossing film of actor Nani's career. The total exceeds the lifetime box office revenues of his prior top earners, including the 2025 release HIT: The Third Case (₹119.48 crore) and his 2023 collaboration with Odela, Dasara (₹118.50 crore). Co-starring Mohan Babu, Kayadu Lohar, Sonali Kulkarni, and Raghav Juyal, the story centers on Jadal, played by Nani, who leads a fight for legal recognition and rights on behalf of the marginalized Savaari tribe.
