Natural Star Nani’s upcoming movie The Paradise has created amazing craze among big stars and movie lovers. The impact of the film’s two songs, teaser, and glimpse is more than expected. According to reports, the film has a total of 6 songs, and Nani is getting ready for September 24 without a trailer for the first time in his career.

Coming to the box office collections, The Paradise Day 1 collection has created huge competition in the Tollywood industry. There is a huge chance of creating a new record at the box office on Day 1 if the film meets expectations and receives positive WOM from the USA premieres. The filmmakers have also already approached the AP/TG governments for ticket hikes, which are expected to be confirmed soon.

If everything goes as planned, it is certain to create mass panic with one of the biggest openings among medium-range movies. Currently, the top opening records for Tier 2 hero movies in Tollywood are:

Top 3 Day 1 AP/TG Collection:

Dasara – ₹14.22 Cr Share
HIT 3 – ₹12.91 Cr Share
Kingdom – ₹11.34 Cr Share

Dasara, the first movie from the The Paradise combo, continues to hold the top position, while HIT 3 stands in second place. Kingdom is in third place. These three films are the only ones to cross the double-digit share mark on the first day.

Now, The Paradise is looking to break these records.

While it looks certain to cross the threshold regardless of the talk on the first day, it looks certain to receive a minimum opening of more than ₹15 crores. If the collections continue to increase show by show depending on the talk received by the film, it could go even higher.

Overall, there is a good chance of targeting openings in the range of ₹18 to ₹20 crores from the Telugu states on the first day. If it exceeds these expectations, then I can estimate that all the Tier 1 gates will be open for me. It remains to be seen what kind of openings the film will receive.
