Keerthy Suresh to Reunite with Nani for a Special Appearance in ‘The Paradise’
The highly anticipated action thriller The Paradise, starring “Natural Star” Nani and directed by Srikantha Odela, is gearing up for its grand theatrical release this September. Adding to the excitement surrounding the project, the makers have officially confirmed that actress Keerthy Suresh will make a special appearance in one of the film’s high-energy musical numbers.
A Rekindled On-Screen Chemistry
Keerthy Suresh and Nani, who previously captivated audiences with their intense chemistry in the 2023 hit Dasara—also helmed by director Srikantha Odela—are set to share the screen once again.
The collaboration was teased on social media when the lead actors exchanged playful banter regarding the upcoming second single, titled “Yeshanagula.” Sharing a behind-the-scenes photograph, Keerthy Suresh wrote, “Vaadi Jadal ni muttukuntte vaadiki sarrruumantadi…” (If you touch his braid, he gets all excited). Nani was quick to respond, sharing another snapshot and adding, “Manam Oogudhame baalaa” (Let’s shake it, girl).
Musical Hype and Release Details
The track “Yeshanagula” is composed by the musical powerhouse Anirudh Ravichander, with lyrics penned by Kasarla Shyam. The song features vocals by Jangi Reddy and Prabha.
Building anticipation for the track, the team has announced a unique promotional strategy: the song is scheduled for an exclusive introduction during Anirudh’s live concert in Dallas on August 28, followed by a wide digital release on August 29.
