The Paradise: Nani & Srikanth Odela Promise an Explosive & Gritty Cinematic Experience – March 26, 2026 Release
After delivering the raw and intense Dasara, Natural Star Nani is set to push the boundaries even further with The Paradise, once again teaming up with director Srikanth Odela and producer Sudhakar Cherukuri of SLV Cinemas. The film, currently in production, promises to showcase Nani in an even more intense and largerthanlife avatar.
The makers have now unveiled a striking first glimpse, aptly titled Raw Statement. From the very first frame, it’s clear that this isn’t just another film it’s a visceral, unfiltered experience. The atmosphere, language, and visuals are unapologetically raw, immersing the audience in a world of rebellion and survival.
"History has always remembered parrots and pigeons, but never the crows born of the same species. This is the story of those crows—burning with hunger, living among the dead, raised on blood instead of milk. A spark ignited, a community awakened, and the oncebelittled crows rose with swords in hand. This is the story of a rebellious young man who led them… the story of a leader’s rise."
The intensity of the narration is matched by the haunting visuals—slums littered with corpses, crows circling ominously, and an explosive moment marking the protagonist’s arrival. Nani makes a stunning entry in an unseen avatar, sporting a rugged look with double braids, a tattooed hand, and a belt marked “HERO.” His commanding body language alone speaks volumes about the character’s raw power and leadership.
With Raw Statement, Srikanth Odela once again proves his ability to craft deeply immersive worlds. His storytelling grips from the first frame, building an atmosphere thick with rebellion and emotion. Every detail, from the watch strapped to Nani’s shoes to the rustic weapon pulled from water, adds depth to the character and his journey.
Technically, The Paradise is a masterclass in visual storytelling. GK Vishnu’s cinematography captures the gritty realism of this world, while Anirudh Ravichander’s pulsating score amplifies the intensity. Avinash Kolla’s meticulous production design ensures authenticity, and Navin Nooli’s sharp editing keeps the momentum razorsharp. SLV Cinemas is sparing no effort in delivering a highscale cinematic experience.
Expanding its reach beyond traditional markets, The Paradise is set for a panworld release, with Raw Statement already unveiled in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, English, and Spanish, while Kannada, Malayalam, and Bengali versions will follow soon.
