Director Srikanth Odela’s birthday message to hero Nani has now become the hottest topic on social media. The post has struck a chord, gone viral, and quickly turned into the talk of the industry.
What makes the message special is its raw honesty. Instead of a routine birthday note, Srikanth spoke straight from the heart, sharing how deeply the creative journey of their film The Paradise affected him.
Srikanth Odela revealed how he broke almost every pattern Nani was known for- his rhythm, discipline, and cinematic rules.
Yet through all the pressure and chaos, it was Nani who consistently rebuilt his confidence. “Everything I have today is because of you,” he confessed, underscoring the trust that shaped the film.
“Each time I broke you, you built me, anna… You built me in a way that everything I have today is because of you. Nuv namminatha nannu evaru nammaledu anna.”
He thanked Nani for enduring every eccentric demand. “I asked you to wear braids… you said ‘ok ra, ni istam.’ I asked you to wear a slur as a tattoo on your hand… you said ‘ok ra, ni istam.’ I torture you with countless retakes… you simply say ‘ok ra, ni istam.’”
The note’s closing lines are a moving reflection of gratitude, “Nannu nammina na Dharani ki,
Nannu malli nammuthunna na Jadal ki... Happy Birthday Nani Anna ❤️ Indebted for life time❤️❤️❤️”
The promo of the first single Aaya Sher dropped yesterday to a terrific response, and the full song is set to release today as a special treat for Nani’s birthday.
