Keerthy Suresh and Nani are all set to reunite on screen, but this time for a special song in the highly anticipated Telugu film The Paradise. The actors, who previously won hearts with their chemistry in Dasara, will come together once again for the upcoming track Yeshanagula, adding another exciting element to the film ahead of its theatrical release.
Keerthy herself announced the special appearance on social media by sharing a fun picture from the song shoot. In the photograph, she can be seen holding Nani’s ponytail, which has become an important part of his rugged look in The Paradise. Her playful caption instantly grabbed attention as she wrote, “When you touch his locks, he gets all fired up.”
The reunion is particularly exciting for fans of Dasara, the 2023 Telugu drama that brought Keerthy and Nani together under the direction of Srikanth Odela. Their chemistry in the film was widely appreciated, and their return for The Paradise creates another opportunity for the popular pairing to share the screen.
Yeshanagula has been composed by Anirudh Ravichander, while the lyrics have been penned by National Award-winning lyricist Kasarla Shyam. With Anirudh behind the music, expectations are naturally high for the track, especially after the makers introduced audiences to the musical world of The Paradise through its first song, Aaya Sher.
The upcoming song is expected to add a different flavour to the intense world of The Paradise. While the film itself promises a gritty and hard-hitting story, the presence of Keerthy in a special song could provide audiences with a lively musical moment before the narrative dives back into its darker territory.
Directed by Srikanth Odela, The Paradise stars Nani in the lead role. The film has already generated considerable curiosity through its teaser, posters and songs, with Nani sporting a fierce and dramatically transformed avatar. His rugged appearance, complete with the distinctive ponytail, has become one of the major visual highlights of the project.
The story is set against the backdrop of the slums and revolves around the life of a prostitute’s son. Nani’s character appears to be at the centre of a dangerous and emotionally charged world, while Raghav Juyal plays a menacing antagonist. Their expected face-off promises to be one of the film’s major attractions.
The collaboration between Nani and Srikanth Odela is also being closely watched after the success of Dasara. Their previous film established a strong creative partnership, and The Paradise appears to take their storytelling into an even more intense and ambitious space.
Meanwhile, Keerthy’s special appearance gives The Paradise an added dose of star power. Her picture with Nani has already created plenty of excitement, with fans getting a small but intriguing glimpse of what Yeshanagula could look like. And considering her cheeky caption about Nani’s “locks,” the song seems to have plenty of playful energy.
Backed by SLV Cinemas, The Paradise is scheduled to release in theatres on September 24, 2026. The film will arrive in eight languages — Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, English, Spanish, Bengali, Kannada and Malayalam — underlining its pan-Indian and international ambitions.
With Nani in a powerful new avatar, Raghav Juyal promising a menacing performance, Srikanth Odela returning to the director’s chair and now Keerthy Suresh joining the film for Yeshanagula, The Paradise is steadily building momentum. For Dasara fans, however, the biggest attraction might simply be seeing Nani and Keerthy together again.
