Natural Star Nani’s The Paradise has continued its box office success on day two, reportedly grossing a sum of approximately Rs. 19 crore. Early projections had suggested that the movie could surpass the Rs. 20 crore mark, but the film’s figures proved to be slightly lower than anticipated.
The Paradise Day 2 Collections
Telangana dominates
The region where The Paradise performed the best on day two was Telangana. The film reportedly grossed approximately Rs. 9 crore in the state, with the Nizam share standing at a sum of approximately Rs. 5 crore.
The strong hold in Nizam allowed The Paradise to remain resilient despite the drop that the film experienced in several other markets. Had it not been for the impressive hold in Telangana, the box office figures of the movie on its second day would be considerably lower than the current figures.
AP and overseas report sharp declines
Both the domestic and overseas markets for The Paradise have reported significant declines on day two. The drop in overseas markets was to be expected, given that the film has had mixed reception across international markets.
However, the biggest concern for The Paradise at the moment is its performance in Andhra Pradesh as compared to Telangana. On day two, The Paradise reportedly grossed a sum of approximately Rs. 14 crore in the Telugu states, as against the Nizam share of the film in the state.
Weekend collections will determine the film’s fortunes
The Paradise now needs to report impressive numbers over the weekend in order to offset the losses that it has recorded in Andhra Pradesh and overseas markets. With the second day of the film’s release witnessing mixed figures across different markets, the collections on Saturday and Sunday will be vital in determining the film’s box office prospects.
At the moment, the strong hold of The Paradise in Telangana seems to be the only positive factor for Nani’s film, with its performance in Andhra Pradesh and overseas markets needing improvement in the days to come.
