Today, the makers unveiled the glimpse of the film, titled Raw Statement, and the name says it all. From the very first frame, one can understand why the term “raw” is used. The atmosphere, language, narrative, and backdrop are unapologetically gritty and unrefined. The glimpse opens with a disclaimer—raw truth, raw language, setting the tone for what’s to come. A powerful voiceover delivers the core of the story, saying, “In history, everyone has written about parrots and pigeons, but no one has ever written about crows born of the same species. This is the story of those crows whose stomachs burned with hunger… The cries of the corpses that have been walking for ages… A tale of a community raised on blood, not milk, from their mother’s breast… A spark ignited that filled the entire community with enthusiasm. Crows who had once been belittled now held swords in their hands. This is the story of a rebellious young man who united those crows… The story of that young man becoming a leader…”

The weight of the voiceover, combined with the stark imagery, allows viewers to feel the anguish of the community it describes. The opening shots show slums littered with dead bodies, with crows ominously flying above. Then, a massive explosion marks the entry of the protagonist, Nani, who emerges in an unexpected get-up. Sporting a rugged look, including a watch strapped to his shoes and a country-side gun pulled from the water, he walks with a fierce determination, leading his people with pride. Although his face remains hidden, the sheer power of his body language and posture, highlighted by his muscular physique and double braids, immediately convey the intensity of the character. His belt, emblazoned with the word HERO, symbolizes his role as the leader of his people.

This Raw Statement hints that The Paradise will feature Nani’s most raw and intense character to date. His striking makeover speaks volumes, and even without a clear view of his face, the emotion and strength of his portrayal come through strongly. This is just the beginning, and the film promises to be a gritty and epic journey into a world of rebellion and leadership.

Director Srikanth Odela has once again proven himself as a visionary filmmaker, masterfully constructing a gritty and immersive world that captivates audiences from the very first frame. His exceptional storytelling shines through with every scene, as he redefines Nani’s on-screen presence by presenting a character filled with raw intensity. One of the most compelling aspects of the glimpse is the meticulous attention to detail, such as the tattoo on Nani’s hand. This seemingly minor visual element becomes a powerful symbol of the character’s personal evolution.

From a technical standpoint, Raw Statement excels in every department. Cinematographer GK Vishnu delivers breathtaking visuals that perfectly capture the film’s unrelenting energy and intense atmosphere. Rockstar Anirudh Ravichander’s electrifying score stands out, enhancing the high-stakes narrative with every beat. His music amplifies the adrenaline-pumping moments, adding another layer of depth to the experience.

The production design by Avinash Kolla is another standout element of Raw Statement. The world Odela creates is raw, gritty, and utterly believable. Every detail, from the costumes to the set design, immerses the audience in this intense universe. The editing is by Navin Nooli. The production values from SLV Cinemas are exceptional. The film’s scale and grandeur are palpable in every frame, with a level of polish that underscores the magnitude of the story being told.

The Raw Statement, released in five languages—Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, English, and Spanish — delivers the unexpected, setting a new standard and raising the bar for cinematic excellence. The Kannada, Malayalam & Bengali versions of the glimpse will be released shortly. With its universal appeal, the film will have a pan-world release.

The episode kicks off with #SandeepReddyVanga and #Navdeep hailing Upendra’s fearless approach to cinema in a special introductory video. Navdeep compares Upendra to Animal’s titular character and dubs him as “the OG real wild animal.” *Sandeep Reddy Vanga also heaps praise on him, adding, “He made Om when he was just 22. He was the youngest director in the country at that time. His screenplay felt like a film within a film.”* The conversation then transitions to Upendra’s early years, as he sheds light on the struggles and creativity born out of humble beginnings.

*Upendra recalls, “I lived in a very tiny house. To earn some money, I made paper covers and sold them to fruit vendors. That’s when I started writing. I approached a director as a writer, and he made me his AD. From there, I moved to becoming a co-director, then director, and finally acting in my own films.”*

*Reflecting on his personal journey and experiences with love and marriage, Upendra delivers a thought-provoking confession. He admits, “Marriage is a great institution. It is so good. I deceived you all by delivering lines like: ‘There is no love. Love is trash.’ Many of you followed it, but very quietly, I got married. I wanted to find out whether there was any truth to what I said. After experiencing it, I am fixed now.” One of the most fascinating moments of the episode unfolds when Upendra reminisces about adding an unexpected twist to a love scene in his 2002 film Super Star. He recounts, “During my trip to Thailand, I saw a tiger and wrote a love scene around it.”*

Created, hosted, and executive produced by Rana Daggubati under the banner of Spirit Media, the unscripted Telugu Original eight-episode series boasts an exciting line-up of guests, including #DulquerSalmaan, #NagaChaitanyaAkkineni, #SiddhuJonnalagadda, #Sreeleela, #Nani, #SSRajamouli, #RamGopalVarma, and many more.

Rishabh reflects on the origins of Kantara, revealing how the film is intertwined with his home and community. “Since childhood, I have dreamt of shooting a film in my village and its forests, Keradi. I scouted this location for multiple movies, but it never worked out. Then came Kantara — which was finally shot here. It was a collective effort, over 700 people from the village contributed. It’s because of this overwhelming involvement that I call my home KFC – Keradi Film City.”

He added how Kantara has shifted his village’s perception of cinema, stating, “This region isn’t huge on films, but Kantara made them see their own on screen. It became relatable, and the love and blessings poured in abundantly.”

The conversation then steered towards their take on popular directors, which made him share his admiration for filmmakers like #SandeepReddyVanga, known for massive blockbuster movies like #ArjunReddy and #Animal. Highlighting how, despite falling into mass controversies, directors like Vanga have a huge fan following, Rishab said, “It’s crazy, nobody can think like him, and I think even he can’t think the same way again. I’d love to be involved in any projects he’s currently working on.”

In a heartfelt moment during the episode, Rishabh’s wife, #PragathiShetty, recounts the touching story of how they first met, “I’m a Rakshit Shetty fan, so I went to a Ricky screening with my friends. One of them wanted a picture with the director, Rishabh, so we spoke. And I told him how proud I was of his journey—from a small village to achieving so much in cinema. That’s when he fell for me! He sent me a friend request on social media, and that’s where it all started.”
