The Paradise is performing strong at the box office
Nani’s The Paradise opened in theatres with mixed reviews from critics and audiences, but the film is doing well at the box office. The Paradise has crossed the Rs 100 crore milestone globally in three days, with the Telugu market continuing to drive most of its theatrical performance.
Following a steep decline on Friday, the film remained stable on Saturday, preserving its early box office momentum.
The film opened with solid Wednesday previews and recorded its highest single-day figure on Thursday, before experiencing a sharp drop on Friday.
According to trade reports, The Paradise earned Rs 15.25 crore net in India across 6,889 shows on day 3, taking its total collection to Rs 76.40 crore net in India. The film’s total India gross collections stand at Rs 90.50 crore.
The film performed strongly overseas, collecting Rs 4 crore on day 3. The film’s total overseas gross stands at Rs 29 crore so far. This pushes the worldwide gross collection to Rs 119.50 crore.
The film earned Rs 11.60 crore net in India from its paid previews and collected Rs 34.65 crore net in India on day 1. The action thriller minted Rs 14.90 crore net in India on its day 2 of release.
The film has achieved the biggest theatrical opening of Nani’s career, surpassing the opening-day figures of Dasara and Saripodhaa Sanivaaram. Across its first four days, it has already exceeded the full domestic run of Saripodhaa Sanivaaram and is closing in on Dasara’s lifetime domestic total.
The Paradise stars Nani in the lead role and follows Jadal, who guides a marginalised tribe in their struggle against discrimination, seeking citizenship and confronting systemic injustice.
Produced by SLV Cinemas, the film is currently running in theatres in eight languages: Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, English, Spanish, Bengali, Kannada, and Malayalam.
