The Paradise Sees Day Two Drop After Nani’s Biggest Opening
The Paradise is an action movie starring Nani.
It was directed by Srikanth Odela and released on September 24.
The movie made Rs 34.65 crore after deductions in India on its first day.
On the second day, it made more than Rs 14 crore, according to early estimates.
This means its earnings fell by more than half compared with Day 1.
The movie still performed strongly in the Telugu market.
Different reports count previews, overseas earnings and ticket money in different ways, so their total opening figures are not the same.
The film will hope to earn more during Saturday and Sunday.
The Paradise collected over Rs 14 crore net in India on Day 2, according to early estimates.
The Day 2 figure represents a reported drop of more than 50% from its Rs 34.65 crore net opening.
The film’s Day 1 India net was collected across 9,732 shows, with Telugu contributing Rs 31.30 crore.
Day 1 estimates vary: one report cited Rs 76.90 crore worldwide, while another counted about Rs 46 crore including paid previews.
Directed by Srikanth Odela, the Nani-led action drama will rely on weekend growth and sustained collections.

Quotes
The Free Press Journal reviewer
A reviewer for The Free Press Journal who evaluated The Paradise.
“While the film is a visual treat for all Nani fans, some might be disappointed with the film in totality due to the not-so-relevant and slightly unbelievable narrative. Skipping this film seems a better option for those who do not prefer hardcore violence and spineless action!”
