Natural Star Nani enjoys a good following among Tamil audiences. With every film of his, the actor has built a genuine fan base in the state. The bookings of The Paradise have been exceptional in Chennai, with the movie already crossing the Rs. 1 crore mark (including premieres). This is the biggest-ever start for a Nani film.
The situation is quite the same in Karnataka too, as the movie has minted Rs. 3.25 crores through advances alone (including premieres), already emerging as the highest start for Nani in the territory.
Globally, the movie has already become the biggest opener among medium-range heroes, with almost Rs. 50 crore in advances. We need to see how high the film can go from here.
