Nani’s The Paradise is heading for a premium ticket pricing model in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana ahead of its September 24 release. The proposed structure has separate rates for premieres and the first 10 days, with multiplexes carrying higher prices than single screens. The premiere tickets in both AP and Telangana are set at ₹300 for single screens and ₹400 for multiplexes, giving audiences an early-show premium before regular pricing comes into effect.
Telangana Gets Higher Rates
In Telangana, the first 10 days will see tickets priced at up to ₹227 in single screens and up to ₹370 in multiplexes. This means the ₹227 and ₹370 figures are the maximum permitted rates, rather than a compulsory price at every theatre. The higher multiplex ceiling reflects Hyderabad’s stronger premium-theatre market. The pricing comes after considerable trade discussion, with the makers and distributors weighing the need for a hike against concerns that expensive tickets could affect audience turnout.
Lower Ceiling In Andhra Pradesh
In Andhra Pradesh, the first-10-day ceiling is comparatively lower: up to ₹197.50 for single screens and ₹252 for multiplexes. So, the complete structure is ₹300/₹400 for premieres in both states; ₹227/₹370 for Telangana during Days 1–10; and ₹197.50/₹252 for Andhra Pradesh during Days 1–10. The hike is particularly significant because The Paradise is Nani’s costliest film and has been sold at substantial prices across territories, putting considerable pressure on its theatrical run.
