‘The Paradise’: Nani starrer gets a slum set, a new schedule begins for Srikanth Odela's directorial

Director Srikanth Odela has decided to create a different visual style for his next film 'The Paradise' starring Nani in the lead role. A huge slum set has been built to make the suburban slum look like an empire. The shooting has now officially begun on the grand set. Director Srikanth Odela confirmed the start of the new schedule by posting #ScheduleBegins on his Instagram story. This film, starring natural star Nani, has created huge expectations ever since the first look was released. Fans are eagerly waiting for the reunion of director Srikanth Odela and Nani, who achieved success with ‘Dasara’. According to the information revealed by the film crew, setting up this slum set was a very difficult task.

'The Paradise' brings slums alive on screen

A massive arch has been erected in the middle of the set, which is planned to serve as the "palace of the empire." He has undertaken this rare endeavor to remind us of the Mahishmati Empire seen in SS Rajamouli's directorial 'Baahubali.' In fact, slums will naturally develop; people will live in them, using every inch. The art department, direction team, action team, choreographers, and many others worked tirelessly to create the set. First, research was done and several mock-ups were created. It was only later that the large set came into being. Many of the key locations for the story to progress were designed on that set. Two large sets are also said to be still under construction.

Anirudh's music adds power

Anirudh is composing the music for the film 'The Paradise', and he is anticipated to give the film the necessary action and deep emotions. Srikanth Odela, who crossed the 100 crore mark at the box office with 'Dasara', is now taking his creativity one step further with 'The Paradise'. To the delight of fans, this grand masterpiece is set to hit the screens in eight languages on March 26, 2026.
