Nani’s ‘The Paradise’ Lands Kerala Distribution via Wayfarer Films – Release Set for September 24

After a buzz‑filled teaser and a string of chart‑topping songs, the much‑awaited Telugu blockbuster ‘The Paradise’ is finally getting its Kerala debut. The film, starring Nani and helmed by Srikanth Odela, will roll out across the state on September 24, 2026, thanks to Dulquer Salmaan’s Wayfarer Films handling the distribution.

Produced by Sudhakar Cherukuri under the SLV Cinemas banner, ‘The Paradise’ reunites Nani with director Odela after their hit collaboration on ‘Dasara’. Cherukuri, who also produced ‘Dasara’, says the new venture is being shot on a larger scale, with high‑octane action sequences and a heartfelt storyline that explores the bond between a mother and her son.

Fans will also recognise the music, as composer Anirudh Ravichander returns to work with Nani following their successful pairings in ‘Jersey’ and ‘Gang Leader’. The pre‑release tracks “Aaya Sher” and “Yesha Nagula” have already sparked chatter on social platforms, hinting at the film’s energetic vibe.

In what Nani describes as his “biggest mass avatar yet”, he plays a character named Jadal – a role that promises plenty of punchy dialogues, elaborate fight scenes, and larger‑than‑life visuals. The teaser, which dropped a few weeks ago, didn’t shy away from showcasing the film’s gritty action and expansive set pieces.

Adding to the intrigue, Bollywood dancer‑actor Raghav Juyal steps into the antagonist’s shoes as Vikram Malik. Early looks at his fierce persona have already generated buzz, and his performance is expected to be a key highlight.

The ensemble cast also includes Kayadu Lohar, Sampoornesh Babu, Mohan Babu, Sonali Kulkarni, Easwari Rao, Raja Ravindra, Tanikella Bharani, M.S. Chowdary and Ram Jagan, each bringing their own flavor to the story.

‘The Paradise’ isn’t just a Telugu release; it will launch worldwide in eight languages – Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil, Hindi, Bengali, English and Spanish – ensuring fans across the sub‑continent and beyond can enjoy the spectacle.

With Wayfarer Films’ robust distribution network and Dulquer Salmaan’s growing influence in the Malayalam market, the film’s Kerala launch is shaping up to be a major event. Audiences can expect a blend of adrenaline‑pumping action and emotional depth, a combination that Nani hopes will resonate with both his loyal fan base and newcomers alike.

Mark your calendars, grab your popcorn, and get ready for a cinematic ride that promises to be as massive as its title suggests.
