Key Highlights

  • Nani and Srikanth Odela skip trailer for The Paradise to focus on post-production
  • Film set for release on September 24 with overseas premieres planned
  • Promotional songs have already created buzz among fans
  • North American pre-sales suggest a strong opening

Natural Star Nani’s upcoming Telugu film The Paradise, directed by Srikanth Odela, has made an unusual move by deciding not to release a trailer ahead of its scheduled September 24 premiere. This decision comes as the team, known for their previous blockbuster collaboration Dasara, chooses to dedicate all available time and resources to completing the film on schedule.

According to the makers, preparing a trailer at this stage could disrupt the final post-production process. The first half of the film has already been locked, while multiple teams are working around the clock to finish the remaining portions. The production house is determined to avoid any distractions that might delay the release, especially with overseas premieres also depending on timely delivery of the final cut.

While skipping a trailer is rare for a major Telugu release, The Paradise is not starting its campaign from scratch. Earlier promotional content, particularly the songs 'Aaya Sher' and 'Yesha Nagula', has already generated significant buzz among fans. The anticipation for the Nani-Srikanth Odela combination remains high, with North American pre-sales indicating a strong opening for the film.

In August, coverage highlighted the film’s status as a high-budget project with Nani in the lead, fueling expectations in the Telugu industry. Now, with the release date just days away, the team is relying on audience word-of-mouth and the strength of the film itself to drive its success, rather than traditional promotional videos.
