Natural Star Nani has been receiving heartfelt birthday wishes from all corners, and among them came an emotionally charged note from Srikanth Odela, the director of their upcoming film The Paradise.
Srikanth Odela confessed that he broke every rule Nani usually lives by- his disciplined work calendar, his release rhythm, even his creative patterns. Yet Nani never resisted. “Nuvvu “Ni istam Srikanth” ani anna prathisari I hear “I trust you Srikanth” And that trust scares me, every single second to give my blood and soul to The Paradise.”
He recalled pushing boundaries: insisting on braids, experimenting with unconventional tattoos, and driving Nani through relentless retake marathons. Through it all, the actor stood steady—never doubting, never questioning.
With The Paradise currently in the making, this tribute makes one thing clear- their collaboration goes far beyond cinema. It is a filmmaker repaying an emotional debt to an actor who shaped his journey.
Produced by Sudhakar Cherukuri, The Paradise will hit the screens on August 21st.
