Telugu superstar Nani has swept the internet off its feet with the release of the first-look poster of his new film The Paradise. The strong poster gives a glimpse into his brutal new character, Jadal, and the fans are already abuzz. Directed by Srikanth Odela, with whom he had previously worked on the blockbuster Dasara, the film is going to hit the screens on a grand note on March 26, 2026.
Jadal: A Symbol of Rebellion
Posting the poster on Instagram, Nani captioned: “His Name/వాడి పేరు, ‘Jadal’, ‘జడల్’ Calling a spade a spade.” The movie will be released in various languages such as Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, and English. The news has created huge expectations, more so with Nani taking up such a gritty and raw role.
Adding to the mystery, a new banner presents a rifle cutting through turbulent clouds vertically, with a small human standing steadfastly on its tip—surrounded by birds. The powerful imagery is met with words, “AND IT BEGINS TODAY,” promising the film’s grander tone and overwhelming story.
A Rebellion Shown Through Symbolism and Sound
The promo called Raw Statement, which premiered earlier this month in March, opened things up with a spine-tingling voiceover and ominous visuals. It starts with a frank disclaimer: raw truth, raw language. The story follows the lives of the marginalized and subjugated—symbolized by crows—who emerge from the ruin of their past to find dignity and power.
