'Devara' Sets a New Record, Surpassing 'RRR' at the Box Office – Jr NTR’s Reign Continues!
Directed by Koratala Siva and featuring Jr NTR as the hero, the film 'Devara: Part 1' is creating a storm at the box office. Despite being released 18 days ago, the film's momentum hasn't slowed down. It broke even in all areas shortly after release and continues to perform strongly. Even though there was some negative talk on the first day, it did not impact the collections. Having already set several records, the film recently achieved another milestone by surpassing the record set by Rajamouli’s 'RRR'. Moreover, it accomplished a feat that even global star Prabhas hasn’t achieved yet.
A New Chapter in Telugu Cinema!
The film 'Devara', starring Jr NTR and Janhvi Kapoor, has set another box office record. In 18 days since its release, it has consistently brought in more than a crore each day in AP and Telangana. This film has become the first Telugu film post-COVID to achieve such a feat, a record previously held by 'RRR' for 17 consecutive days of similar earnings. Now, Jr NTR's impact has broken that record. Reports suggest that even Prabhas' recent films (Radhe Shyam, Adipurush, Salaar, Kalki 2898 AD) did not achieve this milestone, highlighting Tarak’s strong pull at the box office.

How Much Did Devara Collect?
The film 'Devara' grossed ₹509 crores worldwide in just the first 16 days, as officially announced by the makers. Adding the collections of the last two days, it is expected to reach ₹520 crores. The combined gross for AP and Telangana has been ₹222.60 crores. Karnataka contributed ₹17.70 crores, Tamil Nadu ₹4.13 crores, Kerala ₹97 lakhs, and Hindi + Rest of India ₹33.55 crores. If the trend continues, reaching ₹550 crores seems easily feasible. It remains to be seen how far this film will go in the long run.
Has the Streaming Date Been Set?
Netflix has acquired the digital streaming rights to 'Devara' for a substantial amount. With 18 days past since the film’s theatrical release, everyone is eagerly awaiting its OTT release. The latest buzz suggests that 'Devara' might hit OTT as a Diwali treat. An official announcement is expected soon. If it doesn’t happen by Diwali, the release is likely in the second week of November. Netflix secured the rights for ₹150 crores, with a contract to stream the movie 50 days post-theatrical release.
'NTR 31' Loading!
Following the blockbuster success of 'Devara: Part 1', it is known that Jr NTR will collaborate with Prashanth Neel in the upcoming 'NTR 31'. Initially expected as a sequel, Prashanth Neel has decided to make 'NTR 31' a single part film, surprising everyone. Tarak will reportedly play a farmer from Bangladesh, with the entire story set against a Bangladeshi backdrop. The heroine has also been confirmed for this movie, with Kannada beauty Rukmini Vasanth set to star opposite Jr NTR. She is currently working with Nikhil in 'Appudo Ippudo Eppudo'.

Devara Box Office Rampage: Jr NTR’s Latest Film Nears ₹500 Crore Mark in Just 10 Days!
The recent film featuring Jr NTR and directed by Koratala Siva, 'Devara: Part 1,' released worldwide on September 27, has secured a solid victory at the box office. Despite mixed initial reviews, the film showed remarkable strength in its collections, setting records from the very first day. Having completed 10 days since its release, the producers have officially announced the collections, and the figures have left everyone astounded, commenting on the unrelenting rampage of Devara.
[toc]
Approaching ₹500 Crore...
In 'Devara,' Tarak was paired with Janhvi Kapoor, and Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan played the villain. In terms of collections, the film has grossed ₹466 crore worldwide within these 10 days. The makers have released a special poster to announce this achievement. With blockbuster collections, the movie continues to perform well in theaters. In the Telugu states alone, the film grossed ₹193.55 crore, with Karnataka contributing ₹16.40 crore, Tamil Nadu ₹4 crore, Kerala ₹92 lakhs, and the rest of India, including Hindi regions, adding ₹29.80 crore. If this momentum continues, Devara is likely to hit the ₹500 crore mark over this weekend.
First Day and Weekend Collections
The Devara movie, starring NTR and Janhvi Kapoor, grossed over ₹172 crore on its opening day. It collected approximately ₹83.71 crore in the two Telugu states alone, making it the second film to achieve such high collections after 'RRR'. By the end of the first weekend, Devara had already reached the ₹300 crore mark, with a total of ₹304 crore grossed in just three days. Although collections gradually decreased thereafter, the film still managed to turn profitable for the distributors. With no major releases last week, Devara faced no significant competition this weekend, likely easing its path to the ₹500 crore mark.
Profits from Sunday
By the end of the second Saturday (September 5) shows, Devara had crossed the break-even point in almost all areas. From Sunday onwards, all collections are profits. The Dussehra holidays and the lack of other major releases provide a big advantage for Devara. The film's collections are also stable overseas. According to trade circles, Devara has started making profits in many regions including Kerala, Karnataka, Hindi-speaking areas, and the rest of India. This has brought immense joy to both the Devara team and Tarak's fans.
Telugu Films That Crossed ₹500 Crore
Several films from Tollywood have already grossed over ₹500 crore. What are these films? How many days did it take them to reach ₹500 crore? What are the overall collections? Who directed these films? Which star heroes acted in them? Let's find out now.
Kalki 2898 AD

Animal
The film 'Animal,' directed by Telugu director Sandeep Reddy Vanga and starring Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor, performed well at the box office. It collected over ₹500 crore in six days and ultimately grossed ₹917.82 crore. A sequel to this movie is also planned.
Salaar
Directed by Prashanth Neel and starring Prabhas, 'Salaar' caused a cash rain at the box office, joining the ₹500 crore club in just seven days and eventually grossing ₹700 crore. Malayalam star hero Prithviraj appeared as Prabhas's friend in the film. A sequel to Salaar is also in the works.
RRR

Baahubali

Devara Dialogues: Epic Lines That Will Give You Goosebumps!
'Devara', an action drama directed by Koratala Siva starring Jr. NTR with Janhvi Kapoor as the heroine. After many years, Jr. NTR performed dual roles in this film, portraying the characters Devara and Vara. Saif Ali Khan played the antagonist, while Prakash Raj, Srikanth, and Shine Tom Chacko played key roles.
The script was carefully crafted by Koratala, reflecting his experience with 'Acharya'. The dialogues in the film are particularly impactful and linger even after the movie ends.
The dialogues, especially those delivered by Jr. NTR, Prakash Raj, Saif Ali Khan, and Janhvi Kapoor, resonate well with their characters and are sure to draw cheers.
[toc]
Saif Ali Khan's dialogue:
"Erra samudram kaadiki vachi raktham gurinchi matlaadutundava.. naaku chaavu gurinchi cheputundava"
Akkadi nunchi tappinchukunnna Ajay, Prakash Raj daggariki vellinappudu...
Prakash Raj dialogue: "Konda meedakocchi bhayapedudaam anukunnaava?"
Ajay: "Evadra nuvvu?"
Prakash Raj: "Singappa.. nuvvu digivachina konda meeda thoorpu dikkuna untanu."
Ajay: "Nenu ikkadiko panimida vachanu. Peddayanavi, mee vallaku oka maat cheppi oppinchagalava!"
Dialogues that come while traveling on a boat in the ocean…
When Ajay dives into the ocean for his diamond ring and gets frightened seeing the underwater cages, the dialogue delivered by Prakash Raj is really good.
Prakash Raj: "Vajrapu ungarm dorikinda? Samudramlo neeku kanuchchina dani bhayamto vajram gurtuku raale.! Ee bhayame neelanti vallu entha mandi vachina, entha aasha chupina, ikkada unnavaallu ee samudram joli ki matrame raaru."
The dialogue Prakash Raj delivers while introducing Devara makes the fans blow whistles.
Ajay: Kallu moosina, terisina samudramlo chusinde kanipistondi. Asalu evaru vallantha.. evaru chesaru idantha?
Prakash Raj: "Chala pedha katha saami, rakthamto sandrame erupekkina katha."
Ajay: "Evari katha?"
Prakash Raj: "Padi padi leche samudram meeda padakunda nilabadina vaadi katha.. maa Devara katha."
"Bhayam povalante devudi katha vinalaa, bhayam ante ento teliyalante Devara katha vinalaa."
"Kulam ledu, matham ledu, bhayam ledu, variki telisindi dhairyame."
The dialogues Devara speaks about his father to his son Varan in that context are also good.
Varam (Jr. NTR): Abba eppudu mee nanna kathalu, valla nanna kathalu chebutuntaav..! Maa nanna katha cheppu, Devara katha cheppu naaku!
Devara: Taruvatha taraniki cheppukunetantha kathalu kavuraa.. mee nayanavi. Maa nayanollaavi desam kosam poraadina veerula kathalu. Maavi.. evariki cheppukoleni cheekati kathalu, batikunnamane gani, bhavitaraalaku kathaluga cheppukunelaa ee batukulu marutaayo ledo maakuda teliyadu.
The dialogues in the scene where Devara first confronts the arms dealers are powerful.
Devara: Maa ayudhala leke indulo kuda ayudhalu unnayantav.
"Maa ayudhalu manchini chedu nunchi kaapadatanki puttay.. Mee ayudhalu manchini champadanki puttay."
Villain: Maatalu ekkuva avutunnay, samudram ekkala, samudram elala?
The dialogue NTR delivers when Konda in Devara's gang turns against them is superb.
JrNTR dialogues
Devara:
"Chese pani tappani telisina mana avasaram kosam chesstunnav anukunna, ippudu ade alavatuga maari tappudu panulu mana rakthamlo inkipoyayani ippude ardham avuta undadi."
"Manishiki batikenta dhairyam chaalu, champenta dhairyam kaadu." Kaadu kuudadhu ani meeru malli aa dhairyanni kuudagadite.. aa dhairyanni champae bhayanni avuta..!
"Devara adiginadante.. seppinadani
Ade seppinadante..."
Before the interval bang, there is an action sequence with NTR. Devara kills everyone who attacks him, turning the sea red with their blood. Then, the dialogues Devara writes on a rock really pack a punch.
Dhairyam ekkuvai tappudu panulu chesstunna, manollae kada maata chebite maarutaaru anukunna..
Kani, bhayam ante emito teliyani mrugaaluga maaripoyaaru ani ardhamai undadi.
Mee kallamundu unte bhagavantudiki, bhootaniki kuda bhayapadaru.
Anduke eeroju nunchi vallalekka mee nundi dooranga vellipoyi.. kanarani bhayanni ayita.
Bhayam marichi eppudaina tappudu panikosam sandram ekkite... sandram odduna itta pandabeduta..!"
"Devarani champalante saraina samayame kaadu, saraina ayudham kuda dorakala.."
Janvi Kapoor dialogues
Tanga (Janvi Kapoor) Varam (Jr. NTR) pirikitanam gurinchi cheppe dialogue comedy ga untayi.
"Vaadiki valla ayya roopam vachindi kani, raktham raale.. eppudu choodu pillatanam, pirikitanam vaaditho ettalage.
Naa maganni aamda dooram nunchi chusina.. lopala nunchi pongala.. uppongala!!"
Sorachepani champi 'Vara' teesukochadu ani friends cheppinappudu.. Tanga cheppe dialogue navvu teppistundi.
"Unde vaadilo.. unde aadilo..!
Naaku telsu.. intappati nunchi choosthundaga
Unde vaadilo!!"
The dialogue that Janhvi Kapoor says upon seeing young NTR is also hilarious.
Aaa aada aada.. veerudilekka aa nadaka choodu
Lopala pongi uppongutande..
Lopala
The conversation between NTR and Janhvi Kapoor when they first meet each other is romantic.
Tangam (Janvi Kapoor): "Endi itla vachinav?"
Varam (NTR): "Rayappa (Srikanth)to pani undi vachina."
Tangam: "Abbo appude maa ayyato matlaadedaka poyinava?
Eeroju naaku oopiri aagipoyela undi.
Naa veerudu ayudha poojaku siddhamavutunnada?"
During the weapon worship, when the villain (Saif Ali Khan) belittles young NTR after drugging him, the dialogue spoken by Rayappa (Srikanth) is powerful.
Rayappa Dialogues
Emi jaraganatlu andaru antha marachipote manchidi Baira..
Vallu aadu kalipina matthu manduke padinarante.. podduna kallaa matthu digalaa..
Kani, vallu mancham kuda digala..
Ayudha poojalo meeru vaadi kantalona berukune chusundaru..
Kani nenu vaadi debbalo odupu chusina!
Devara lekka balanni chusina
Vaadi balam vaadiki kuda teliyaka, ila andarni matthulo petti gelavaalanukovadam vaadi pasitanam.
Kani o rakamga mee andariki, ade manchidi.
Samudram meeda oka Devara unnadu chalu,
Konda meeda inkoka Devarani tayaru cheste adi meeke manchidi kaadu Baira.
Tangam (Janvi Kapoor dialogues):
"Naavalla kaavatla, andariki matthu mandu ichhi gelavadam aente.
Akka, naa mogudante.. samudra ala antha oohinchukunnanu nenu.
Vaademo.. odduku chere pilla ala maadiri unnadu."
Tangam snehiturali odaarcutu cheppe dialogue navvu teppistundi:
"Anni telisina danini chebutana, vinu.
Prati aadadanki... nachhinodu okaduntadu,
Vachhinodu inkoduntadu.
Vachhinodilo nachhinavadini choosukoni
Deepam arpesukoni kaapuram chesukunte
Batuku saafi ga saagipotadi."
Devara Climax Dialogues
In the climax, the dialogues that Prakash Raj tells Devara's wife, Jogula (Shruti Marathe), about Devara give goosebumps.
"Nee penimiti andarni vadilipetti eppudo poyinadu thalli.
Devara manalni vidichipetti eppudo chanipoyadu.
Inna ella ga andarni samudram pai tappu cheyakunda bhayapedutha undi.
Nee penimiti Devara kaadu... nee bidda Varam.
Chinnappati nunchi Devara cheppina kathalu vintoo perigi undademo.
Ee konda ni batikinchadaniki pedda kathani raasinaadu nee bidda.
Aa mrugaala mayalo padi gorra pilla la poyinadu anukunnaava?
Kaadu thalli, vaadini addupettukoni vellina vallu gorra pillalu.
Samudram lo eepatiki mrugani vetaadinaatu vetaadutuntadu nee bidda!"

'Devara' Box Office Rampage: Jr NTR's Latest Breaks Records with Rs. 300 Crore Weekend!
The film 'Devara,' directed by Koratala Siva and starring Jr NTR, was released worldwide on a grand scale this Friday (September 27). Despite mixed reviews, the overall reception has been positive. 'Devara' is being showcased to packed houses in all theaters. Audiences are praising Jr NTR's performance, Anirudh's music, and Koratala Siva's dialogues, contributing to a first-day collection of over Rs. 172 crores, demonstrating its box office strength. By the end of the weekend (Friday, Saturday, Sunday), let's see how much the film has collected.
How much are the weekend collections?
Starring Jr NTR and Janhvi Kapoor, 'Devara' has created a storm at the box office. Three days post-release, the film shows no signs of slowing down in collections. Over the weekend, it grossed a staggering Rs. 304 crores (GROSS), officially announced by the makers through a poster. This news has left Tarak's fans ecstatic as 'Devara' continues its rampage at the box office. Already part of the 300 crore club, trade circles predict it will easily hit Rs. 500 crores by the end of the week.
Region-wise performance
The makers of 'Devara' have only announced worldwide collections. However, trade circles have attempted to estimate region-wise earnings. According to their data, in the two Telugu states, 'Devara' garnered Rs. 126.5 crores over three days. It collected Rs. 38.77 crores in Nizam alone and Rs. 17.90 crores in the Ceded region. In Karnataka, it earned Rs. 20.9 crores, in Tamil Nadu Rs. 5.9 crores, in Kerala Rs. 1.4 crores, and Rs. 35.3 crores in the rest of India. Overseas, it is reported to have made over Rs. 65 crores, marking the highest collections in Tarak's career.
Day 1 collections set new records!
'Devara' has set a record for the highest day 1 collections in Jr NTR’s career as a solo hero. On its first day, it grossed over Rs. 172 crores worldwide, as officially announced by the makers with a special poster. This is a significant achievement post-'RRR' in Tarak's career. Trade circles reported that it made Rs. 83.71 crores on the first day in the two Telugu states alone, with Rs. 19.32 crores coming from Nizam, making it the second all-time highest after 'RRR'.
Reasons for Devara's success!
'Devara' introduces a new world called 'Erra Samudram' created by director Koratala Siva. The film showcases Tarak in a one-man show, delivering exceptional performances as both Devara and his son Vara. Saif Ali Khan, playing the villain, also captivated audiences. Anirudh’s background score has been a major strength for the film, especially in action sequences. Director Koratala Siva impressed with his screenplay and dialogues. The way the action sequences were crafted, the interval bang, and the climax provided great entertainment. However, slow scenes and a weak love track could be seen as drawbacks.
Devara's Story
Set on a hill across four villages at the Andhra-Tamil Nadu border, known as 'Erra Samudram,' Devara (Jr NTR) along with Bhairava (Saif Ali Khan), Rayappa (Srikanth), and Kunjara (Shine Tom Chacko) are village heads. They smuggle goods through the sea without getting caught by the officials, handing them over to Muruga (Murali Sharma). Realizing the damage caused, Devara decides to stop the smuggling, which Bhairava opposes, leading to a conflict. Devara instills deep fear among his people, while Bhairava plans to kill him. Will Bhairava's plan succeed? What critical decision does Devara make to stop the smuggling? Why has his son Vara turned into a fearful figure? Who is killing the people trying to cross the sea? How does Vara's romance with Thangam (Janhvi Kapoor) unfold? What connects Devara to the gangster Yati? Watch the movie to find out.

Devara Movie Review: : Jr. NTR’s Stellar Acting Overshadowed by an Uneven Narrative
Cast: NTR, Janhvi Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Shruti Marathe, Prakash Raj, Srikanth, Shine Tom Chacko, and others.
Written and Directed by: Koratala Siva
Music by: Anirudh Ravichander
Cinematography by: R. Rathnavelu
Editing by: A. Sreekar Prasad
Produced by: Sudhakar Mikkilineni, Kosaraju Harikrishna, Nandamuri Kalyan Ram
Release Date: September 27, 2024
NTR stars in an action drama 'Devara', directed by Koratala Siva, with Janhvi Kapoor as the heroine. NTR returns to dual roles after many years, portraying the characters of Devara and Vara. The promotional materials already released have heightened expectations. Saif Ali Khan plays the antagonist, with significant roles being filled by Prakash Raj, Srikanth, and Shine Tom Chacko. The movie has completed all its schedules and released worldwide on September 27. But how is the film? Does it meet the expectations? Has it impressed the audience or not? Let's find out in this review.
The Story
Located on a hill at the border between Andhra and Tamil Nadu are four villages collectively known as the Red Sea. Here, Devara (NTR) along with Bhairava (Saif Ali Khan), Rayappa (Srikanth), and Kunjara (Shine Tom Chacko) serve as the heads of each village. Their job involves smuggling goods through the sea to Murugan (Murali Sharma) without getting caught by authorities. However, realizing the damage caused, Devara decides to put an end to their smuggling activities. Bhairava disagrees, sparking a conflict between them. Devara instills deep fear in everyone. Bhairava then plans to kill Devara. Does his plan succeed? What pivotal decision does Devara make to stop the smuggling? Why does his son Vara (NTR) become fearful? Who kills Bhairava's men trying to enter the sea? How does Vara's romance with Thangam (Janhvi Kapoor) develop? What is Devara’s connection with gangster Yathi? Watch the movie to know.
Performances
There's no need to specifically mention Tarak's acting; he immerses himself in any role he takes. In this movie, too, he impresses as both Devara and Vara, bringing variations that captivate the audience. He reaffirms his prowess in action scenes and dazzles in dance sequences. Janhvi Kapoor, making her Tollywood debut, fits perfectly as the village girl Thangam, appearing authentic as a Telugu girl, though her screen time is brief. Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan captivates as the villain, making a strong impact in a role that competes with Tarak's. Srikanth, Prakash Raj, Ajay, Murali Sharma, Shruti, and others play significant roles, with other actors performing well within their limits.
Direction
Director Koratala Siva creates a new world named 'Red Sea' and attempts to weave drama and emotions in his unique style. The first half unfolds the story of the Red Sea, the characters Devara and Bhaira, their transformation into smugglers, their conflicts, songs, and the terror Devara instills, all showcased effectively by Koratala. The interval bang is also excellently planned. While the first half revolves around Devara, the second half introduces Vara. The entry of the second NTR is well-executed, but the story seems stretched afterwards. Janhvi Kapoor’s scenes feel forced, except for a song, and the rest seem tedious. The pre-climax action scenes inside the sea are spectacular, but the climax, while engaging, reminds one of the movie Baahubali. Koratala sets up for a part two, ending Devara's story. However, the second part lacks the impact of the first, with a weak love track, dragged scenes, predictable narrative, and missing the typical Koratala mark being the downsides.
Technically
On the technical front, all departments have performed well. Anirudh's background music is another major strength of the movie, enhancing the film with his distinctive BGM. The songs are good, with 'Chuttammalle' likely to generate whistles in theatres. Rathnavelu's cinematography is excellent, richly presenting each scene. Editing is decent. The production values are high, sparing no expense.
Plus Points
- NTR's performance
- First half
- Cinematography
- Music
Minus Points
- Second part
- Weak love track

'Devara’ Breaks the 23-Year Rajamouli Sentiment: NTR’s Film Triumphs After RRR
The latest film featuring the Man of the Masses, Tarak, titled 'Devara' has been released grandly today (September 27). Despite some mixed opinions, the film overall is being touted as a hit. The music by Anirudh is reportedly next level. Having shattered several records even before its release, the film is expected to achieve even more milestones, with fans confident about its success. Interestingly, it's said that Tarak has broken a flop record of Rajamouli that has been ongoing for 23 years, declared by none other than Rajamouli's son.
Rajamouli’s Flop Sentiment!
It’s a well-known fact that a film with director Rajamouli is a blockbuster. However, post a Rajamouli film, no hero until now has managed an immediate hit. Every hero has faced a box office disaster following their film with Rajamouli, a sentiment that started 23 years ago with Rajamouli’s first film 'Student No.1'. Following 'Student No.1' and 'Simhadri', Tarak faced major failures. Similarly, post 'Vikramarkudu' Ravi Teja, post 'Maryada Ramanna' Sunil, and post 'Eega' Nani all faced flops. After 'Baahubali 2', Prabhas, Rana, and Anushka also failed in their subsequent films. Naturally, there were apprehensions about 'Devara' following 'RRR' with Tarak.
Breaking the 23-Year Record
The flop sentiment with Rajamouli started with Tarak on September 27, 2001, with the release of 'Student No.1'. 23 years later, on the same day, 'Devara' was released and has garnered hit talk, thus ending the flop cycle that started on the same day with the same person 23 years ago. This has sparked a flurry of comments on social media that Tarak has shattered the bad sentiment linked with Rajamouli. Now, fans believe that no hero needs to worry about the Rajamouli flop sentiment anymore.
Karthikeya’s Special Post
Karthikeya, Rajamouli's son, also tweeted about this, "Finally, the 23-year myth has been broken. It ended on the same day it began with the same person. I grew up watching him closely, seeing his growth and success. Now I see the wonders he's performing. I am speechless at the contribution he’s making to Telugu cinema. This is a big gift he has given to the fans. Devara is the biggest mass celebration in cinema. Now, even the madness speaks. All hail the tiger," along with a photo taken with NTR.

Rajamouli Watching Devara with Fans
The buzz around 'Devara' is evident across theaters in the Telugu states. After nearly six years, NTR's solo movie has his fans ecstatic. Amid this festive atmosphere, Rajamouli watched the film. Accompanied by his family, he greeted movie enthusiasts at the Maithri Vimal theater in Balanagar and watched the film with them. Videos related to this are going viral online. Producer Dil Raju and director Anil Ravipudi watched the movie at Sriramulu theater. Meanwhile, in a theater in Chennai, music director Anirudh watched the movie with fans and charged up the atmosphere by singing the Fear song.

'Devara' Fever: Jr NTR’s Grand Release Poised for Record-Breaking ₹125 Crore Opening Day
Just a few hours remain until the premiere of 'Devara' (Devara: Part 1). Directed by Koratala Siva and starring Jr NTR, the film is set for a grand worldwide release tomorrow (September 27). Janhvi Kapoor, daughter of Sridevi and Bollywood beauty, stars opposite Tarak, while noted Hindi actor Saif Ali Khan plays the antagonist, generating nationwide buzz. With over 500 premieres in the Telugu states, the advance booking trends worldwide suggest that 'Devara' will easily garner over ₹120 crores on its first day. Let's explore how this is possible.
₹125 Crores Confirmed for Day One!
Tarak's 'Devara' has already broken several records before its release, creating massive hype. Tickets worldwide are selling like hotcakes. The governments of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana have even allowed an increase in ticket prices. Record-breaking presales are happening overseas. Given this backdrop, it is evident that 'Devara' will easily gross over ₹125 crores on its first day, and industry insiders estimate that an additional ₹10-15 crores wouldn't be surprising. According to pre-bookings, the film is expected to earn ₹65 crores in the two Telugu states alone, with ₹8-10 crores coming from Hindi-speaking regions. Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala, and the rest of India could collectively contribute another ₹10-15 crores. Overseas, 'Devara' is set to make a significant impact, with trade circles predicting an easy ₹30-35 crores on the first day alone. Overall, the film is firmly expected to cross ₹125 crores on its opening day.
What's the Break-Even Target?
The pre-release business for 'Devara,' directed by Koratala Siva and starring NTR, has been phenomenal. Theatrical rights alone have been sold for ₹185 crores, according to trade sources. In the two Telugu states, the rights went for ₹115 crores, with the Nizam area alone fetching ₹45 crores. Ceded region reported ₹22 crores in business, while Karnataka saw ₹15 crores, Tamil Nadu ₹6 crores, and Kerala ₹0.5 crores. In the US, the film sold for ₹26 crores and ₹15 crores in the Hindi belt. In total, all areas combined for a pre-release business of ₹185 crores. If the film collects a share of ₹200 crores, it will break even.
Anirudh's First Review of 'Devara'
Young music sensation Anirudh Ravichander provided the soundtrack for 'Devara.' In a recent interview, he commented on the film's hype: "I was amazed during the scoring of the background music. I kept wondering how they managed to make such a great film. It's a wonderful action drama. Such films allow for creative experiments in music. We aimed to provide a fresh experience for the audience, completing 95% of the recording work overseas. Watching 'Devara' will give you a feeling similar to watching Hollywood films like Avengers and Batman. It has emotion, drama, action, and intensity. Audiences coming to the theaters are in for a phenomenal experience. I'm looking forward to seeing this movie on the first day, first show," said Anirudh.
A Telugu Actress as Saif's Wife
It's known that Saif Ali Khan plays the villain in 'Devara.' Telugu senior actress Chaitra Rai stars as his wife, causing her name to surge in popularity. "Getting the opportunity to act alongside stars like NTR and Saif Ali Khan is my good fortune," said Chaitra. She was thrilled to meet Tarak and Saif on set. Chaitra first became known through the 'Ashta Chamma' serial and is currently acting in the 'Radhaku Neevera Pranam' serial. She hopes that a good recognition from 'Devara' could keep her busy in movies too.
A Rare Feat in Two Countries
'Devara' is currently trending on social media and has achieved a new milestone by setting a record in Australia and New Zealand. It will be the first Indian film to be shown in a significant number of Dolby Atmos shows in these two countries, with 13 screens in Australia and 3 in New Zealand. Additionally, 'Devara' recently set a record in North America's ticket presales, becoming the fastest Indian film to reach the $1 million mark in presales.

Devara Promotions: Are Devara Promotions Not Heading in the Right Direction? Is Tollywood Being Neglected?
The movie "Devara," directed by star director Koratala Siva and starring the 'Man of Masses' Tarak, has created a Pan-India buzz. Following a global hit like 'RRR,' Tarak's new film has been eagerly awaited by both his fans and cinema lovers. With the film set to release on September 27, the Devara team is busy with promotions. However, the focus on the North Indian market has led to dissatisfaction among the Telugu audience. So far, none of the promotional events for Devara have originated from the Telugu states, raising concerns that the Devara team is neglecting Tollywood.
Trolls on Chennai Promotions
As part of its promotions, the Devara team landed in Chennai on Tuesday (September 17). The event featured Tarak, along with actress Janhvi Kapoor, director Koratala Siva, music director Anirudh, and Tamil actor Kalaiyarasan. During this, Tarak expressed his desire to work with Tamil director Vetrimaaran, which although captivated the Tamil audience, left Telugu cinema lovers feeling slighted. Trolls are questioning why a star like Tarak would request a Tamil director to make a movie with him, suggesting he is diminishing his own stature.
Devara Team on The Kapil Sharma Show!
The Devara team has also been conducting back-to-back promotions in Mumbai, attempting to hype up the movie. As part of this, Tarak appeared on the very popular 'The Kapil Sharma Show Season 2.' Being a major Bollywood star, it’s almost obligatory to appear on this show, which has a fan base that transcends regional boundaries. Bollywood stars believe that appearing on this show greatly boosts their movie promotions. During the 'RRR' promotions, Rajamouli, Tarak, and Ram Charan had made an appearance on this show. Recently, Tarak revisited the show for Devara, along with Janhvi Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Saif Ali Khan. The promo, which also features Team India captain Rohit Sharma & Co, has been captivating. This episode is scheduled to stream on Netflix at 8 PM on September 21.

Tarak in Hindi Bigg Boss 18?
The Hindi Bigg Boss show enjoys significant popularity. With Salman Khan hosting the upcoming Hindi Bigg Boss Season 18, there is strong buzz that the Devara team will promote their movie on the show. Official confirmation from the Devara team is pending, but it is evident from the current strategy that Tarak & Co. are not missing any opportunity for promotions in the North. Bigg Boss 18 is set to stream starting October 4, by which time Devara will have already been released. It remains to be seen if the Devara team will participate in Hindi Bigg Boss.
Interview with Animal Director
Recently, the Devara team was interviewed by Animal director Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The chat session, which included Tarak, director Koratala Siva, Saif Ali Khan, and Janhvi Kapoor, was notably entertaining. Sandeep posed some intriguing questions to the Devara team, to which Janhvi and Tarak responded in their unique styles. Tarak mentioned that Devara is an action drama that will thrill the masses. Koratala Siva spoke about his long-standing friendship with Tarak, and the team mentioned that they had spent 35 days filming an underwater sequence. Janhvi claimed Devara would be the best movie in everyone’s careers. Sandeep playfully commented on the movie's runtime, and when asked how long it was, he said with a laugh that it was 3 hours and 24 minutes. Despite Sandeep Reddy Vanga being a Telugu director, the entire interview was conducted in English, which has left Telugu viewers unable to connect. Click the link below for the full interview.

Where Are the Tollywood Promotions?
Lately, the Devara team has been focused predominantly on Bollywood, believing that effective promotions there could translate into significant box office returns. Even the movie’s key trailer was released in Mumbai. There have been comments suggesting it would be beneficial to similarly promote the movie in Telugu, given Tarak’s star image and expected box office pull in Telugu-speaking regions. Compared to the promotions conducted in the North, there seems to be little planning for significant promotional activities in Telugu. Fans are surprised that young heroes Siddhu and Vishwak are interviewing NTR and Koratala, raising questions about the level of NTR’s engagement. There are criticisms that leveraging his close relationships with big names like Mahesh, Prabhas, and Rajamouli for interviews would have been more beneficial for Telugu promotions. The interview Rajamouli conducted with the 'Salaar' team is often cited as an example. So far, the focus on Bollywood in promotions has been strongly criticized for overshadowing efforts in Tollywood. How the Devara team will address this remains to be seen.

Mahesh Babu for 'Devara' Pre-Release?
There is strong speculation online that Mahesh Babu will attend the pre-release event of 'Devara'. It is discussed that director Koratala Siva has invited Mahesh to the event. However, Mahesh has yet to make a final decision on this. There is a possibility that clarity will emerge soon. Mahesh and director Koratala share a good rapport, having delivered successful films like 'Srimanthudu' and 'Bharat Ane Nenu'. Film circles suggest that Mahesh is likely to attend, which would significantly boost expectations for 'Devara'.
Event in Hyderabad
The makers are planning to conduct the pre-release event of the film 'Devara' on September 22 in Hyderabad. Initially, there was consideration to hold the event in Andhra Pradesh, but finally, Hyderabad was chosen. Meanwhile, the trailer of 'Devara' was released this week. The action-packed trailer has received a positive response, increasing the hype for the film. NTR's action and Koratala's direction were highlights of the trailer, and Anirudh Ravichander's background music was also well-received.
Tarak in Sandeep's Movie!
News is making rounds online about the upcoming movie 'Spirit', directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga and starring Prabhas. There is speculation that Tarak will appear as the antagonist in this movie. The suggestion for Tarak to play the villain in 'Spirit' came from Sandeep himself, given the impact Tarak can bring to such roles, as demonstrated in his film 'Jai Lava Kusa' where he played a character with negative shades. If Tarak agrees, the expectations for 'Spirit' are sure to rise significantly.

Devara Runtime Sparks Debate: Is Koratala Siva Taking a Risk?
The movie 'Devara,' directed by Koratala Siva and starring NTR, is being released in two parts. Part 1 is set to release on the 27th of this month. Recently, the censor formalities for 'Devara' were completed, and the movie's runtime has been fixed by the censor board members. The lengthy runtime has sparked new tensions among fans, with comments circulating online questioning if the Devara team is knowingly taking a risk. Let's explore the reasons behind this.
Censor Clear
The movie 'Devara,' starring Jr. NTR and Bollywood beauty Janhvi Kapoor as the heroine, has completed its censor formalities. The censor board has issued a U/A certificate and fixed the film’s duration at 2 hours and 57 minutes. This means Devara is nearly three hours long, a substantial runtime. However, due to the extensive action sequences and the need to establish the story, the makers have decided on a longer duration.
Are They Knowingly Taking a Risk?
Film analysts opine that bringing 'Devara' with almost three hours of runtime is a significant risk. Keeping the audience engaged for three hours is not trivial. Any lag in the story or unnecessary scenes could negatively impact the film, as evidenced by several previous releases. Even if the story is compelling, the lengthy runtime has hurt those films. Therefore, there's a warning that even slight miscalculations in 'Devara' could lead to significant setbacks. Some of Tarak's fans are also expressing concerns about the runtime online.
Films Hurt by Long Run Times!
Recent releases like 'Bharateeyudu2', 'Tiger Nageswara Rao', and 'Ante Sundaraniki' came to the audience with longer durations and received flop talks. Apart from 'Bharateeyudu 2', the other two films had good content but failed to impress due to the extended duration. In 'Tiger Nageswara Rao', even though Ravi Teja delivered a strong performance, the length made it feel dragged. The same happened with 'Ante Sundaraniki', which despite a unique concept about the problems arising in a romance between individuals of different faiths, was criticized for feeling like a serial due to its length.
The Burden on Koratala!
If Koratala Siva can work his magic as he did in his past films, then the runtime might not be an issue. If he perfectly blends Tarak’s acting with the story, narrative, and production, the runtime of 'Devara' could turn into a big plus. Observing Koratala Siva's previous works like 'Mirchi', 'Bharat Ane Nenu', 'Janatha Garage', and 'Srimanthudu', one can appreciate his directorial skills. He has been successful in creating compelling drama and screenplay around simple storylines. If 'Devara' can repeat this magic, fans have a reason to rejoice. His recent works and past successes suggest that if 'Devara' can maintain this magic, it will be unstoppable.
Rajamouli's Flop Fear!
Another fear accompanying 'Devara' is the alleged curse following actors who work with the legendary director Rajamouli, experiencing massive flops in their subsequent films. This pattern was noted with Ravi Teja, Prabhas, and Ram Charan. Despite hits like 'Student No.1' and 'Simhadri', Tarak’s films post those were disasters, like 'Subbu' and 'Andhrawala', leaving indelible marks on his career. Given that Tarak's last film 'RRR' was under Rajamouli's direction, there’s apprehension about 'Devara'. Fans are anxious whether this sentiment will repeat, yet there's hope that 'Devara' will break this pattern.

'Devara: Part 1' Trailer Sparks Buzz: Jr NTR's Dual Roles Raise Excitement and Concerns
The film 'Devara: Part 1,' created by the combination of Jr NTR and Koratala Siva, has become the talk of the nation. With the movie set to release on September 27, the film unit is focusing heavily on promotions. Recently, the Devara team released several songs and unveiled the trailer on Tuesday (September 10), which has further heightened the anticipation and created a buzz around the movie. The trailer clarified that Tarak will be playing dual roles as father and son. Fans are now apprehensive since Tarak's previous dual role movies have not fared well, causing concern about the outcome of 'Devara.'
Dual Roles: A Jinx?
It is known that Tarak is playing dual roles in 'Devara.' He has played dual roles in several films before, such as 'Andhrawala,' 'Sakthi,' and 'Adhurs,' where he portrayed distinct characters. 'Andhrawala' was his first dual role film, directed by Puri Jagannadh, which turned out to be a huge disaster. His subsequent dual role in 'Sakthi' also flopped badly. These films have left painful memories for Tarak and his fans. However, his experiment with 'Adhurs' was somewhat successful, though it did not achieve commercial success, earning only a two-crore margin (grossing Rs. 28 crores) on a budget of Rs. 26 crores. Notably, 'Jai Lava Kusa,' where Tarak played triple roles, was a box office hit, marking a significant success.
Will 'Devara' Overcome the Curse?
Film circles speculate that every time Jr NTR has taken on dual roles, it has been met with obstacles, as past experiences have shown. There are concerns that this bad sentiment might affect 'Devara' as well. However, Tarak's fans are hopeful that 'Devara' will break the jinx and achieve success, putting an end to the negative streak that has followed him. The trailer for 'Devara' has also been impressive, leading fans to post confidently about the film's potential success. Let's hope for 'Devara' to be a hit.
Dual Role in 'NTR 31' Too!
It is known that Tarak is set to star in a film directed by 'KGF' fame Prashanth Neel, currently under the working title 'NTR 31.' In this film too, Jr NTR is expected to play dual roles. One of the roles is rumored to be a 75-year-old man, a character unlike any he has played before, and another as a mafia don. Produced by Mythri Movie Makers, this film is soon to go on floors. 'NTR 31' might also face the same sentiment issues if 'Devara' results in an unexpected outcome, as the working title 'Dragon' is also under consideration for this project.
How's the Devara Trailer?
The trailer for 'Devara' starts with a powerful voiceover by Prakash Raj, saying, "There's no caste, no creed, no fear at all... but for the first time, fear has crept in." It showcases NTR's (Devara) character with lines like, "A man needs only enough courage to live, not enough to die. If he gathers that courage again... it's that courage that kills fear." The villain Baira (Saif Ali Khan) and his gang's atrocities are also depicted. During a crucial time when the gang plans to kill 'Devara,' another character of NTR (Vara) is introduced, portrayed as very naive by the heroine Janhvi Kapoor. The trailer leaves us with suspense: Is 'Devara' alive or dead? What problems did Baira's gang cause to him and the villagers? Director Koratala Siva maintains the suspense throughout the first part of the 'Devara' trailer.

Devara: Koratala Siva's Signature Formula, Trailer Release, and Rising Expectations for NTR's Next Blockbuster"
The film 'Devara' (Devara: Part 1), directed by Koratala Siva and starring Tarak, is currently generating buzz nationwide. Following the global hit 'RRR', expectations are high for this new movie from Tarak, not just in Telugu but also in the North. The trailer is also set to release today, causing hashtags like #JrNTR, #DevaraTrailer, #KoratalaSiva to trend online. Director Koratala Siva is known for following a special formula in each of his films. A close examination of his previous films reveals this pattern. Based on this, some netizens have predicted the plot of Devara, which is now going viral online. Let’s see what those details are.
Is This Koratala's Formula?
Koratala Siva's directorial ventures like 'Mirchi', 'Srimanthudu', 'Janatha Garage', and 'Bharat Ane Nenu' have been blockbuster successes. Although the stories and settings of these films vary, the underlying formula remains the same. This involves an outsider hero who goes to a new place and stands up for the people suffering there, confronting the villain causing the trouble. As it turns out, there is a past connection between the hero and the local villain. Recalling the plots of these films and applying the said formula, one might agree that this could indeed be true. Koratala Siva’s previous film 'Acharya' also followed this formula, where Chiru, as an outsider, goes to a place called Padagattam and ends the chaos created by villains there, with a flashback linking Ram Charan to Chiru and Padagattam.
Is This the Story of Devara?
Based on Koratala Siva’s formula from his previous films, some netizens have predicted the plot of Devara. According to them, the red sea shown in the first teaser is presumed to be a significant location. In this area, NTR leads the fishermen and confronts the villains causing disruptions. In a twist, the villains’ gang plots and seemingly defeats him. However, NTR's son, surviving an attack by the villains, grows up and returns to the area to exact revenge on the villains. Some commentators believe that this plot fits Koratala’s formula and could indeed be the storyline of 'Devara'. However, whether this is accurate remains to be seen, though many posts suggest the plot is quite convincing.
Devara Creates History
The film 'Devara', directed by Koratala Siva and starring NTR, is set to release worldwide on September 27. Having already set records with its music, the movie recently added another achievement by opening its pre-sale ticket bookings overseas, reaching the one million dollar mark. It became the fastest Indian film to reach this milestone at the North American box office, delighting Tarak's fans.
Tarak with Three Star Directors
Following 'Devara', Tarak has lined up a Bollywood film 'War 2' and 'NTR 31'. While Ayan Mukerji is set to direct the Hindi film, 'NTR 31' is helmed by Prashanth Neel. Recently, a photo of Tarak with Koratala Siva and these two directors went viral, with netizens praising Tarak’s collaboration with this three directors. Reportedly, this meet-up is part of the promotions for Devara, as Tarak is expected to appear in an interview with these directors.
Trailer Loading...
The upcoming action drama 'Devara' is set to release its trailer today (September 10) at 5:04 PM. The trailer, lasting 2 minutes and 50 seconds, is said to be packed with action sequences, heavily hyped by the director Koratala Siva and the movie team. The film features Janhvi Kapoor as Tarak’s co-star, with Bollywood actors Saif Ali Khan and Bobby Deol appearing as villains. Young music sensation Anirudh is providing the music for this film.

Devara: A Gripping Tale with High Expectations, But Will Its Runtime Test Audiences?
The film 'Devara: Part 1,' starring Jr NTR, is garnering nationwide expectations. Directed by Koratala Siva, this film is set to hit the screens in exactly 23 days, greeting global audiences on September 27. Bollywood beauty Janhvi Kapoor stars alongside Tarak, with Hindi cinema stalwarts Saif Ali Khan and Bobby Deol playing villainous roles, generating significant buzz for the film. Amidst this, recent news about the runtime of 'Devara' is circulating online, causing concern among Tarak's fans.
What is the runtime?
In the works under the combination of Tarak and Koratala, 'Devara' is currently in the midst of post-production. Reports suggest that the film's runtime has been finalized. The industry is abuzz that the Devara team has locked a runtime of 3 hours and 10 minutes. Fans are expressing concern, fearing that such a lengthy duration might be cumbersome. Most films exceeding 3 hours have struggled to engage audiences. However, it's too soon to declare this as Devara's final runtime since the movie still has to undergo censorship review. There's a possibility that the duration might reduce if the censor board decides to make cuts.
Will Koratala's magic work?
Regardless of the cuts made by the censor board, analysts believe that Devara’s runtime is unlikely to be less than 3 hours. The success of the film is expected to hinge on Koratala's screenplay. Considering his past directorial ventures like 'Mirchi', 'Bharat Ane Nenu', 'Janatha Garage', and 'Srimanthudu', Koratala's direction prowess is well recognized. He has successfully turned simple storylines into gripping dramas with engaging screenplays. If he repeats this magic in 'Devara', it could be a delight for the fans. The recently released 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' also had a runtime of nearly 3 hours, yet managed to impress with its excellent action drama and the direction skills of Vivek Athreya, combined with the outstanding performances of Nani and S.J. Suryah.
Films Affected by Long Durations!
Recent releases like 'Bharateeyudu 2', 'Tiger Nageswara Rao', and 'Ante Sundaraniki' arrived with lengthy runtimes and received a lukewarm response. Despite 'Bharateeyudu 2' being set aside, the other two films had good content but failed to captivate the audience. In 'Tiger Nageswara Rao', although Ravi Teja delivered a commendable performance, the extended duration resulted in a dragging sensation among the audience. 'Ante Sundaraniki' faced similar criticism despite its unique concept of challenges faced by a couple from different faiths. The excessive length was perceived as making the movie feel like a serial.
New Poster Release
Today marks the release of the third song from the film Devara. Having already released the first single, 'Fire Song', and the second single, 'Chuttamalle', both songs are trending on YouTube. However, the makers have announced that a third single titled 'Daavudi' will be released this evening at 5:04 PM. In line with this, a special poster featuring Tarak and Janhvi Kapoor in a romantic pose has also been released, captivating the audience.

Is this the story of 'Devara'?
It is reported that the plot of 'Devara' is based on real-life incidents as penned by director Koratala Siva. According to the latest buzz, the film portrays a brutal massacre of Dalits, drawing from events that once shook united Andhra Pradesh. It is said to depict the tragic incident of Karamchedu, where many Dalits fell victim to upper caste violence in 1985. Reliable sources confirm that Koratala Siva has planned to showcase this real-life incident in 'Devara,' significantly heightening expectations for the film. Currently, there is no official clarification from the film unit regarding the ongoing speculation on social media.

Devara: Is it a Real-Life Tale That Could Stir Political Waters for TDP?
After the global success of "RRR," Jr. NTR's upcoming film "Devara: Part 1" directed by Koratala Siva is generating huge expectations. The film features Bollywood beauty Janhvi Kapoor as the heroine and veteran actor Saif Ali Khan as the antagonist, creating significant buzz. With shooting completed, the film is currently in the post-production stage. Jr. NTR playing a dual role has sparked curiosity among fans and cinema lovers about the storyline of "Devara." Recently, a sensational piece of news has been stirring up the internet related to "Devara's" storyline, which is reportedly based on a real incident that once shook unified Andhra Pradesh. What is this incident? What's the story of Devara? Let's find out.
Is This the Story of Devara?
It is believed that director Koratala Siva has based the story of "Devara" on some real-life events. According to the latest buzz, the movie reflects on a brutal massacre of Dalits that took place in the past. The film is said to depict the tragic incident of Karamchedu, where many Dalits were killed by upper castes in 1985 in Karamchedu village of Andhra Pradesh. Reliable sources suggest that Koratala Siva plans to showcase this real-life incident in "Devara," increasing the anticipation for the film. Currently, the movie team has not clarified the ongoing speculations on social media.
Will It Embroil TDP?
During the Karamchedu incident in 1985, Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao was the Chief Minister of unified Andhra Pradesh. Although he introduced several new laws for Dalits after the incident, it remained a permanent stain on his government. Even years later, the scars of that bloodshed still haunt the TDP government, which is currently in power again in AP. If "Devara" brings this issue back into the spotlight, it could potentially put Chandrababu Naidu's leadership and TDP in a tough spot, especially considering the ongoing speculations of internal conflicts between the TDP and Balakrishna, Jr. NTR’s relationship. If the movie portrays the Karamchedu incident, it could further widen the rift.
A Social Message is Essential!
Koratala Siva is one of the directors in Telugu cinema known for incorporating a social message or touching on social issues in every film. From addressing factionalism in "Mirchi," adoption of villages in "Srimanthudu," supporting the underprivileged in "Janatha Garage," responsible politics in "Bharat Ane Nenu," to showcasing the Naxalite movement in "Acharya," his films consistently reflect deeper social concerns. It's quite possible that "Devara" will include scenes related to the tragic events of Karamchedu, as discussed within industry circles.
The Third Song is Coming!
The third song from "Devara" is set to be released on September 4th. The movie team has officially announced this through a poster. The duet titled "Davudi" promises to be a mesmerizing track, with every beat designed to make you whistle. The latest poster features Tarak in a black outfit and Janhvi captivating in white, as she romantically grabs him from behind. The dance steps by Jr. NTR in this song is expected to be spectacular.

Jr. NTR's Generous Heart
In response to ongoing flood relief efforts in the Telugu states, Jr. NTR has stepped forward to donate Rs. 50 lakhs each to the governments of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. This announcement was made via X platform shortly after which, young actor Vishwaksen also contributed Rs. 5 lakhs to each state, marking their solidarity during tough times. Netizens have been pouring praise on both heroes for their support during this crisis.

SHOCKING: 'Devara' Director Koratala Siva Under Fire - Blockbuster Sea Sequence Allegedly Copied from Korean Film; Shankar Hints at Legal Action Over Story Rights!
Directed by Koratala Siva and starring Jr. NTR, 'Devara: Part 1' has created a storm at the box office, becoming the biggest hit of Tarak's career. The sea fight sequence in particular has thrilled audiences, and Koratala Siva's creativity has been widely praised. However, there's a growing controversy online suggesting that these were not entirely Siva's original ideas, but rather direct copies from a Korean film. Here's the video that's trending as evidence.
What Actually Happened?
The introduction and interval scenes in 'Devara' are so dynamic that they're bound to give anyone goosebumps. No one expected a Telugu director to execute such an elaborate action sequence at sea. The film features a scene where the hero, along with his gang, goes to a ship to steal weapons, dumping the gun-filled crates into the sea. Members of the hero's gang, already stationed in small boats, then retrieve these crates to smuggle them past the naval officers. Yet, netizens are surprised to find a strikingly similar scene in a Korean movie, accusing director Koratala Siva of plagiarism. Audiences are mocking the director for fooling them, urging everyone to check out the Korean movie scene.

That Scene Too!
It's known that Tarak plays a dual role in 'Devara.' Initially, as part of the villain's gang, 'Devara' participates in smuggling for some compelling reasons but later turns good. Meanwhile, he also instills fear among his peers against smuggling. The director showcases a sequence with chairs filled with knives along the coast. However, this scene has also been accused of being copied, with claims that it closely resembles a scene from the Hollywood film 'Vikings.'

Is the Story of Devara Also Copied?
There were extensive promotions before the release of 'Devara' claiming that its story was adapted from a copyrighted novel. Tamil director Shankar recently accused that he saw key scenes from his copyrighted novel being used in a film, stressing that creators should respect rights and avoid copying without permission, warning of legal actions. However, Shankar did not clarify which film he referred to. But, the buzz on social media suggests that the story of 'Devara' closely mirrors the Tamil novel 'Veera Yug Nayagan,' for which Shankar holds the rights.
Similar Accusations in the Past
This is not the first time Koratala Siva has faced plagiarism accusations. He was also heavily criticized during the release of 'Srimanthudu' with Mahesh Babu. Writer Sharath Chandra even took the matter to court, claiming his story was copied. The issue had created a sensation across the Telugu states back then. In 2012, Sharath had published his story 'Chachentha Prema' in Swati Monthly, and while he was planning to adapt it into a film, he accused Koratala Siva of making 'Srimanthudu' based on his story.

Jr NTR's 'Devara' Achieves Rare 50-Day Milestone in Theaters Amidst OTT Era
Previously, a movie's success was not just measured by its collections but also by how many days it ran in theaters. In the past, many hit films used to run for 50 days, 100 days, and some even celebrated 200 days functions. During the era of actors like Ramarao and Nageswararao, there were instances where movies were shown for a whole year. However, in the current OTT era, this situation has disappeared. Even films that collect hundreds of crores at the box office are moving to OTT within a month. Therefore, the talk of movies running for 50 days or 100 days is almost non-existent in the industry. However, Tarak's latest film 'Devara' has broken this silence. Let's see how.
Devara... The Half Century
Directed by Koratala Siva and starring Tarak, the Pan-India film 'Devara' was released worldwide on September 27 and has claimed success. The film grossed ₹500 crores at the box office. Recently, Devara achieved a milestone by being shown in 52 centers for 50 days (Devara 50 Days in 52 Centers). The makers released posters detailing this accomplishment, listing the theaters in the Ceded, Uttarandhra, Krishna, Nizam, East, West, Guntur, and Nellore areas that completed 50 days. It's special that 'Devara' managed a half-century in theaters even though it's available on OTT. Tarak's fans are proudly raising their collars seeing this.

Trending on OTT as Well
After creating a tsunami of collections at the box office, 'Devara' was recently brought to streaming by Netflix. From November 8, it has been available in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and other South Indian languages. Shortly after its release, 'Devara' trended nationally on Netflix, and it continues to draw significant streaming minutes, a record for a Tarak film. Even a week into its OTT release, 'Devara' remains in the top 10, with many who have seen the movie rewatching it.
Soon on Sets 'NTR 31'
It's known that Tarak (Jr NTR) will be making a film with Kannada star director Prashanth Neel. The movie, tentatively titled NTR 31, is set to be a periodic action drama. The pre-production work is going on vigorously, promising a new level of characterization and performance from Tarak compared to his previous films. Plans are underway to start shooting as soon as pre-production is complete. Currently, Tarak is busy with the film 'War 2', a Bollywood movie starring Hrithik Roshan, in which Tarak will play a role with negative shades.
Tarak's Movie with Rajini's Director?
There's a strong buzz that Tarak will be making a movie with Tamil star director Nelson Dileep Kumar. Discussions related to the story have already taken place, and Tarak has reportedly responded positively to the script. An official announcement about this project is expected soon. Nelson Dileep Kumar recently directed 'Jailer', securing a solid hit with Rajinikanth in a powerful role. Currently busy with 'Jailer 2', Nelson may commence the Tarak project after that.
