Director Srikanth Odela has taken the industry by surprise with The Paradise glimpse, featuring Nani in a never-seen-before avatar. The film, made on a massive budget with a unique script, is set to hit the screens on March 26, 2026.
One of the most talked-about aspects of the film’s glimpse is Nani’s distinctive braided look and a tattoo featuring a cuss word on his hand. His ponytail appearance has particularly intrigued audiences, sparking widespread discussions.
In a recent interview, Srikanth Odela revealed the emotional reason behind Nani’s braided hairstyle. He shared that his mother used to braid his hair during his childhood, a style he maintained until the fifth grade. However, he chose not to disclose further details about how this connects to the film’s storyline.
Nani’s fans are eager to learn more, as the film’s regular shoot is set to commence soon. The Paradise also features Sonali Kulkarni in a key role and is being produced by Sudhakar Cherukuri under the SLV Cinemas banner. Rockstar Anirudh Ravichander is composing the music, adding to the anticipation surrounding this much-discussed Tollywood project.
