Sampoornesh Babu rose to fame with Hrudaya Kaleyam and later delivered a few films that earned him recognition. Sampoornesh, however, wanted to establish himself as a proper actor and waited many years for roles that showcased his acting skills. When the opportunity for The Paradise came up, he decided not to sign any other films and to focus completely on this project, hoping to taste success. Cut to post-release, the situation is completely different.
Sampoornesh Babu played the character called Biryani in the film. Before the release, it was promoted as a significant character in the film. Sampoornesh Babu also said he is betting big on this role and expects more films and meaningful roles in the coming days. But in fact, Sampoo’s role did not receive special attention because it is a routine, regular character with no single scene that offers a chance to excel in acting. On the flip side, instead of Sampoo, two other female actors are getting recognition through The Paradise.
Kranthi Balivada, who played Kayadu Lohar’s mother in the film, is getting special attention after being associated with the film. She played a character and also dubbed for actress Sonali Kulkarni, who played Sammakka, the mother of Nani’s character in the film. In fact, it is Kranthi’s voice that the teaser used, and she is also the one who dubbed several prominent films, including the KGF franchise. Her dialogue about complimenting Kayadu as a single-take artist is getting huge recognition on social media.
She started her career as a biochemistry lecturer and then ventured into anchoring with ETV. Slowly, she got introduced to the world of dubbing and eventually took up acting. With The Paradise, she captured the spotlight and may get much better roles in the coming days.
Another actor who is being praised for her performance is Vishika. She was already seen in films like Court, Korean Kanakaraju, Patang, and Committee Kurrollu. Vishika’s performance in the second half is now being recognized by everyone. The young actor has big scope to gain more opportunities in big films.
That said, Sampoornesh Babu may have gotten a chance to be part of a big film of this scale, but it will likely be another movie in his filmography rather than a game-changer. Going forward, he must revisit how he approaches new films.
