Nani is once again proving his immense box-office pull in the overseas market with his upcoming big-budget film ‘The Paradise.’ Directed by Srikanth Odela, this action drama has just two days left for its grand premiere night. The film is already breaking advance booking records across North America, registering a $600K gross and securing a place in the Top 5.
The film is also making a strong impact with its advance premieres in the UK and Ireland, showing no signs of slowing down. With this film, Nani has secured the fifth spot among the highest North American premiere advance sales. The Paradise first surpassed Toxic and then crossed Chiranjeevi’s latest film Man Shankar Varaprasad Garu in North American advance premiere sales.
Trade circles are calling this the highest North American premiere advance sales in Nani’s career. Crossing the $600K mark with two more days still left for the premieres is no easy feat, especially for a Tier-2 hero. According to trade estimates, if the same trend continues, the film could cross the $1 million mark in the next two days. It remains to be seen how far Nani can take his box-office range with this film.
Meanwhile, the Telangana government issued the GO regarding the Paradise ticket price hike yesterday, and Nizam ticket bookings were also opened on the District app. Within just a few hours of the bookings opening, Nani’s film created a record by collecting ₹2 crore gross in Nizam.
If this trend continues, The Paradise appears to have strong potential to set new box-office records across the Telugu states, Hindi and Tamil markets, as well as overseas. It remains to be seen where Nani takes his box-office range with this film.
