‘The Paradise’, starring Telugu superstar Nani and directed by Srikanth Odela, is set for a grand release in Kerala through Dulquer Salmaan’s Wayfarer Films.

Produced by Sudhakar Cherukuri under the banner of SLV Cinemas, the film is scheduled to hit theatres worldwide on September 24, 2026. ‘The Paradise’ marks Nani and Odela’s reunion after their successful collaboration on ‘Dasara’. Cherukuri, who also backed Dasara, has produced the upcoming film. 

Mounted on a large scale and featuring action as a key element, ‘The Paradise’ is also described as an emotional story centred on the bond between a mother and her son. Nani had previously spoken about the emotional core of the film.

The film also marks Nani’s reunion with composer Anirudh Ravichander after their collaborations on ‘Jersey’ and ‘Gang Leader’. The songs “Aaya Sher” and “Yesha Nagula”, released ahead of the film, have gained traction on social media.

Billed as the biggest project of Nani’s career, the film features him as Jadal, described as the actor’s biggest mass avatar yet. The teaser, released earlier, drew attention for its action sequences, mass dialogues and grand visuals. It also hinted at the film’s emphasis on violence and high-octane action.

Bollywood actor Raghav Juyal, known for his role in ‘Kill’, plays the antagonist Vikram Malik. His character glimpse, released earlier, also generated attention.

Alongside Nani and Juyal, the cast includes Kayadu Lohar, Sampoornesh Babu, Mohan Babu, Sonali Kulkarni, Easwari Rao, Raja Ravindra, Tanikella Bharani, MS Chowdary and Ram Jagan in key roles.

‘The Paradise’ will be released worldwide in eight languages – Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil, Hindi, Bengali, English and Spanish – on September 24.
