Nani’s The Paradise continues to generate buzz, with the film becoming a talking point among audiences and on social media. Despite mixed-to-negative reviews, the movie has reportedly crossed the ₹100 crore worldwide gross mark.
Now, the film has caught the attention of BRS working president K. T. Rama Rao (KTR), who revealed that he would be watching The Paradise in a theatre. KTR said that he is returning to a theatre after several years to watch a film on the big screen, particularly for Nani and director Srikanth Odela.
“After many many years, going to a theatre tonight to watch one of my favourite actors @NameisNani and the talented young director @odela_srikanth in ‘The Paradise’,” KTR posted on social media.
Priyadarshi’s MLA Role Sparks KCR Comparisons
Meanwhile, one particular sequence from The Paradise has become a talking point among audiences in Telangana. Priyadarshi’s portrayal of an MLA has drawn comparisons with former Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao (KCR), particularly because of the character’s appearance, mannerisms and dialogue delivery.
The sequence appears in the second half when Priyadarshi’s character is introduced as an MLA. Some viewers have interpreted the portrayal as a reference to KCR’s political persona and his reputation for standing by his words.
The scene has received additional attention among BRS supporters amid the ongoing political exchanges between the Congress government led by Revanth Reddy and the BRS leadership.
With KTR now set to watch the film, audiences are curious to see whether he reacts to the Priyadarshi episode or shares his thoughts about the film after the screening.
