Makers on Vishwambhara delay. Chiranjeevi's Vishwambhara directed by Mallidi Vasishta is turning&nbsp; out to be an enigma. The project which was supposed to bringing back the nostalgia of Chiranjeevi's evergreen classic Jagadeka Veerudu Atiloka Sundari is in the hibernation with the release getting delayed.

Everyone got excited when the socio fantasy entertainer Vishwambhara was announced. But the first teaser dampened the spirits of everyone as it got trolled massively due to poor VFX and CGI. This started delaying the project so much so that Chiraneevi's next film Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu got completed and even hit the screens and turned out to be a blockbuster.

Recently Chiranjeevi excited all saying that they are planning to release the film on 9 or 10 July. In the meantime, Ajay Kumar of UV Creations speaking to scribes said the VFX in the teaser didnot get good response and so it was ensured that the second teaser will have good VFX. So the CG is taking time as Vishwambhara is a huge film.

Trisha, Meenakshi Chowdhary,Isha Chawla and Ashika Ranganath are playing important roles in the film for which music is tuned by Keeravani.

Nani\'s upcoming film, The Paradise, directed by Srikanth Odela, has seen a significant increase in budget, now estimated to be around â‚¹200 crore. This makes it the biggest ever film for Nani showcasing the producer\'s confidence in Nani\'s potential and the project\'s scope. The film is expected to perform well not only in Telugu but also across India, given its pan-Indian appeal.\r\nThe Paradise is currently in production, with the initial release date of March 26 likely to be pushed to the second half of 2026. The delay is attributed to the complexity of the project and the team\'s desire to deliver a high quality product. The film\'s success is crucial, as it needs to generate strong numbers to justify its unprecedented budget for a Nani Starrer.\r\nThe Paradise boasts an impressive technical crew, including music composer Anirudh Ravichander, cinematographer GK Vishnu, production designer Avinash Kolla, and editor Navin Nooli. The film\'s story revolves around a marginalized tribe\'s struggle for recognition, led by an unexpected leader, and explores themes of societal prejudice and oppression.\r\nWith its global marketing strategy and multilingual releases, The Paradise aims to resonate with audiences worldwide. The film\'s success could pave the way for more big-budget projects featuring non Tier 1 stars, making it a significant milestone in Telugu cinema.&nbsp;

The Telugu film Om Shanti Shanti Shantihi, starring Tarun Bhascker and Eesha Rebba, has flopped at the box office, collecting just â‚¹0.73 crore nett in its first three days. The remake of the Malayalam hit Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya Hey (2022) struggled to sustain momentum at theatres, largely due to audience familiarity with the original, which is available on OTT platforms.&nbsp;\r\nThe film\'s poor performance highlights the challenges faced by remakes in the post-OTT era. With easy access to original content, audiences are increasingly interested in fresh stories rather than rehashed versions. Om Shanti Shanti Shantihi\'s mixed reviews and lack of strong pre release buzz further damaged its prospects.&nbsp;\r\nThe film\'s failure can be attributed to several factors, including the original film\'s widespread availability on OTT platforms, weak word of mouth, and the remake\'s inability to offer a compelling new experience. Despite decent performances from the lead cast, the film\'s impact was limited, and it failed to recreate the success of the original.\r\nThe underwhelming box-office performance of Om Shanti Shanti Shantihi serves as a cautionary tale for filmmakers, emphasizing the need for innovative storytelling and strong theatrical appeal to attract audiences instead of doing remakes.&nbsp;
