Mahesh Babu's Son Gautam Rates Nani's The Paradise One Star, Criticizes Editing

Analysed 25 Oct 2026·3 sources analysed·Varanasi, India·Entertainment
Mahesh Babu's Son Gautam Rates Nani's The Paradise One Star, Criticizes EditingPreviousNext

Mahesh Babu's son, Gautam Ghattamaneni, rated Nani's film The Paradise one star on Letterboxd, calling it "very disappointing" and criticizing its editing as "atrocious." He praised the cinematography and emotional performances but found little else positive. Gautam's candid reviews have attracted attention, including previous low ratings for films like Yash's Toxic and some of his father's works. The Paradise, directed by Srikanth Odela, was a box office failure and is now streaming on Netflix.
