The Paradise Box Office Day 1 Advance Booking (Final): Tollywood’s 2nd Best Pre-Sales Of 2026 After Peddi!
The Paradise, starring Nani in the lead role, is one of the most awaited Telugu releases of 2026, and it has lived up to every bit of its hype as far as advance bookings at the Indian box office are concerned. Right from the first day of pre-sales commencement, the film was selling tickets like hot cakes, and on the last day, the pace doubled. As a result, we saw the 5th-best day 1 pre-sales of 2026 among Indian films. Keep reading for a detailed report!
Nani’s biggest release ever with 10,000+ shows
The Telugu action thriller has arrived with a huge 10,084 shows across India, thus securing the widest release ever for Nani. It definitely benefited from the absence of any big Telugu film running alongside it, but such a wide release also reflects the emergence of the next big star and exhibitors’ confidence in the actor.
The Paradise concludes day 1 advance bookings on a blockbuster note!
Coming to the final day 1 advance booking update, The Paradise sold a whopping 9.78 lakh tickets (excluding blocked seats). With this, it has surpassed Ram Charan’s Peddi (8.22 lakh tickets) to sell the highest number of tickets for a Telugu film in day 1 advance bookings of India in 2026. In terms of gross collections, the action thriller grossed a massive 20.41 crore at the Indian box office through opening-day pre-sales. In net collections, it equals 17.3 crore.
