Natural Star Nani is one of the favourite Telugu stars among overseas audiences. Nani’s films have always done quite well in North America, and his most-awaited The Paradise is no different. In fact, The Paradise is carrying massive expectations and hype like never before in Nani’s career.

The film has several mass elements like Nani’s Jadal, Srikanth Odela’s pure mass touch, Mohan Babu and Anirudh’s music. Naturally, the stakes for The Paradise are extremely high at the overseas box office.

However, there were a few concerns ahead of the film’s release. The Paradise went through multiple postponements, which occasionally affected the buzz. But then, the song Yesha Nagula Katta Meeda changed the whole game, bringing back huge craze for the film. The mass song, along with Nani and Keerthy’s moves, has generated strong hype.

That’s not all. The makers opted for a no-trailer strategy due to time constraints, which created some uncertainty among fans and moviegoers. Usually, a trailer plays a key role in driving pre-sales, especially in North America.

Despite all this, The Paradise managed to overcome the odds. Nani’s overseas pull, combined with director Srikanth Odela’s hype and Anirudh’s music, has added to the buzz and intensified the craze surrounding the film.

And the result is The Paradise has already crossed the USD 1 million mark in North America pre-sales even before the premieres, which is nothing short of madness.

The Paradise is now set for its overseas premieres tonight, and all eyes are on whether Nani can continue his sensational run at the overseas box office.
