Produced by SLV Cinemas, The Paradise is a powerful socio-political action drama that explores systemic oppression and social prejudice. The plot centres on a marginalized tribe fighting for their right to citizenship and dignity in a world designed to exclude them. Amid this chaos emerges an unlikely leader — played by Nani — who spearheads a movement for justice and recognition.

With an ensemble cast that continues to expand, and a strong storyline rooted in real-world struggles, The Paradise is shaping up to be one of 2026’s most anticipated releases. The film is set for a worldwide theatrical release on March 26, 2026, in eight languages, including Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, English, and Spanish — making it a truly global cinematic experience.
