The Nani‑starrer 'Paradise' earned a total of Rs 113 crore in its first six days, with a noticeable drop in weekday earnings.
The Telugu‑language film 'Paradise', headlined by actor Nani, crossed the Rs 113 crore mark in its opening six‑day window, according to trade sources. The film opened strongly over the weekend, but the subsequent weekdays saw a significant dip in ticket sales, indicating a slowdown after the initial hype.
Box‑office analysts attribute the weekday decline to a combination of factors, including competition from other new releases and a typical post‑weekend audience drop. Despite the slowdown, the cumulative gross places 'Paradise' among the higher‑earning releases of the year.
The film's performance will be closely monitored in the coming weeks as distributors assess its staying power in theatres across the country. Further updates on its total collection and screen count are expected as the run progresses.
Industry observers note that Nani's fan base contributed heavily to the opening surge, while word‑of‑mouth and critical reception will likely influence the film's trajectory moving forward.
Overall, 'Paradise' demonstrates the volatility of box‑office earnings, where a strong launch can be quickly tempered by weekday audience behavior.
