The one film which has ruled the hearts and ticket windows of the Indian cinematic box office for the last one month has been the mythological drama film ‘Hanuman Ansh’ starring Shobhinav Satya with strong acting. Seeing the huge demand and tremendous craze of the audience, the makers recently released this devotional drama in Telugu language all over South India on 18th September, where it was getting great public support. But now the biggest and unprecedented challenge has come before this uncrowned king of the box office. Telugu cinema’s ‘Natural Star’ Nani’s much talked about action-thriller film ‘The Paradise’ is creating a storm in advance bookings even before its release. The audience’s craze for Nani’s upcoming pan-India film is such that theater tickets are being sold out rapidly and the film has touched bumper earning figures even before its release, filling the pockets of the makers.
Nani’s ‘The Paradise’ to hit theaters on September 24: Advance booking hits Rs 3.23 crore
According to the official and latest data of film trade and box office analytics platform Sacnilk, there are still two days left for the release of ‘The Paradise’, but this movie has registered a huge gross collection of more than Rs 3.23 crore in advance booking even without blocked general seats. Trade pundits believe that Nani’s stardom and director Srikant Odela’s vision have once again been completely successful in drawing the audience to the theatres. Earlier, the duo of Nani and Shrikant Odela had proved their mettle with their powerful story and rustic action by giving blockbuster films like ‘Dussehra’. Now this explosive coordination of the two in ‘The Paradise’ seems to be setting historical records in the very first round of advance booking, making it difficult for all other films to maintain their place at the ticket window.
Record breaking pre-sale in Hyderabad: Estimate of Rs 9.76 crore with block seats on the first day
The most amazing magic and unprecedented craze of Nani’s action-drama film is being seen in Nizam Circuit and its surrounding areas in Hyderabad, the capital of Telangana. The initial shows of most of the single screens and IMAX theaters in Hyderabad became houseful within minutes of opening. According to trade analysts’ estimates, the film’s first day domestic box office collection, including block seats (administrative and corporate bookings), is likely to be more than Rs 9.76 crore. If we talk about the extended weekend from Thursday to Sunday, then this figure can easily cross Rs 18.30 crore. According to the data, more than 58 thousand tickets have been sold so far for the first day’s shows, while a total of more than 1.53 lakh tickets have been sold in advance till the upcoming weekend, which is a clear indication of a huge opening for any Indian star.
State governments give green signal to increase ticket prices: Premiere prices reach Rs 500
Seeing the uncontrolled enthusiasm of the audience towards ‘The Paradise’, both the state governments of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana have given official administrative approval to the film producers to increase the ticket rates. After this decision of the governments, new ticket rates have been set based on the format and facilities of the theatres. Ticket prices for exclusive premiere shows of the film have reached almost ₹500, both on single screens and multiplexes. Whereas for normal regular shows, the per ticket rate in single screen theaters has been kept at ₹225, while in big multiplex complexes this price has been fixed at ₹390. Despite the increased ticket prices, there has been no decrease in the enthusiasm of the fans and they are not holding back from buying expensive tickets to see Nani’s larger-than-life avatar on the big screen.
All preparations for Pan-India release: This action thriller will thrill the audience in five languages
Telugu cinema superstar Nani’s recognition is no longer limited to just regional cinema, but his films have gained a deep and loyal fan-following in the Hindi belt and across India. This action-thriller film is being released pan-India simultaneously in the original Telugu language as well as Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada on 24 September 2026. Advance booking of the Hindi dubbed version is also gaining momentum in the multiplex chains of North India. The teaser and visuals of the film have already created a huge hype on social media, due to which trade experts predict that the film will set many new records in its box office earnings in its first four days and will break the earning momentum of Shobhinav Satya’s ‘Hanuman Ansh’ and will join the list of biggest opener films of 2026.
