Anupama Chopra sits down with Nani in Hyderabad for InFocus to discuss the polarising response to The Paradise, directed by Srikanth Odela. Nani reflects on the pressure to meet a release date, the rushed edit and score, and how the focus on individual set pieces affected the larger story. He explains why he continues to believe in Srikanth's talent, addresses the film's extreme violence, and talks about receiving criticism with gratitude while acknowledging that the team could have done better. The conversation also explores Nani's approach to trusting directors, staying honest about his own work, and giving preparation and post-production the time they need. He opens up about his concern for distributors and exhibitors, why becoming a bigger mass star has never been his goal, and the varied filmography he hopes to look back on. Nani and Anupama discuss family life and release pressure before turning to Bloody Romeo with Sujeeth, his next love story and an upcoming production. 00:00 Introduction 04:24 Srikanth's vision: storytelling and set pieces 08:53 Responding to criticism with gratitude 12:47 Watching The Paradise as an audience member 16:08 How far should on-screen violence go? 19:59 Trusting directors and accepting feedback 23:12 Lessons in preparation and post-production 27:00 The emotional stakes of The Paradise 31:57 Why Nani isn't chasing mass stardom 36:53 Family and release pressure 40:43 Bloody Romeo and what's next #Nani #TheParadise #THRIndia
