Top Tollywood directors SS Rajamouli and Trivikram along with KGF sensation Prashanth Neel will attend the grand pre-release event of Devara. All the three directors share a close bonding with NTR.
The film will release on September 27th with 1.08 AM shows across the Telugu states. The advance sales for Devara in USA are sensational and the advance sales for the film in the Telugu states will open this weekend. The expectations are huge on Devara and Tarak will be seen in a dual role in the actioner. NTR Arts and Yuvasudha Arts are the producers while Anirudh is on board to score the music and background score. Some of the top technicians worked for this big-budget attempt.
NTR is busy promoting Devara all over. He has been to Chennai to promote the film and he interacted with several media houses. In one of the interviews, NTR said that he and Atlee met several times and discussed scripts. Tarak said that Atlee is a great talent and he narrated an interesting plot in the past. Apart from that, he also narrated a romantic comedy and he loved the narration. NTR also admitted that he loves Raja Rani, the debut film of Atlee so much.
About teaming up with Atlee, NTR admitted that they both will soon collaborate for a film and it will not happen now because of the current commitments. NTR hints of a possible collaboration with Atlee in the coming years. Atlee will soon direct Salman Khan and Kamal Haasan in a multi-starrer and the shoot commences next year. Tarak is promoting Devara directed by Koratala Siva and the film is announced for September 27th release. He is shooting for War 2 and he will soon join the sets of Prashanth Neel’s action drama.
Though Bollywood diva Jahnvi Kapoor has her roots down South because her mother and legendary actress Sridevi, who was born in Tamil Nadu, left an indelible mark with an illuminating and a nonpareil career in cinema here, she started her acting stint with Hindi movies for obvious reasons so as to gain more popularity in a short span. However, she hasn’t been able to carve out a niche in Bollywood despite acting in a handful of youthful entertainers after her debut in 2018 with Dhadak.
She is now making her debut in Tollywood with the upcoming pan-India action drama Devara alongside NTR. Even before the release, Jahnvi has managed to impress the moviegoers and critics alike with her alluring screen presence in the promotional content that has been unveiled so far. Her stupendous dancing skills matching NTR’s grace have already become a talking point.
Surprisingly, Janhvi Kapoor now stunned everyone with her Tamil accent during the promotions of Devara in Chennai. While interacting with the media on Tuesday, Jahnvi spoke very fluently in Tamil and impressed the Kollywood audiences. She said she had fond memories in Chennai and recollected her good times with her mother Sridevi.
It looks like Jahnvi Kapoor is firm on gaining a foothold in South cinema with her command in Telugu and Tamil languages besides enchanting with her glamorous apperance. She is set to rule the roost as filmmakers are looking to cast her in several big-ticket films. She already bagged Ram Charan’s next film.
In Devara, she plays a village belle Thangam. The film is slated for release on September 27th.
NTR is busy promoting Devara across all the languages. The film will have a wide release in all the languages on September 27th. NTR along with the team of Devara is currently in Chennai to promote the film. During the media interaction, NTR was asked about doing a straight Tamil film. NTR replied on a swift note saying that he is waiting to work with his favorite director Vetrimaaran. “I will do a straight Tamil film if Vetrimaaran sir is ready. It will be dubbed into Telugu “, told NTR.
Vetrimaaran has delivered some of the cult films in Tamil. His films have a strong plot that discusses a social cause and the characterizations in his films are written on a stronger note. He also narrates the stories of backward classes. When several top commercial and successful directors are waiting for NTR, the top actor intends to work with a director like Vetrimaaran. On the work front, NTR will soon resume the shoot of War 2 and he will soon work with Prashanth Neel in his next film.
NTR’s Devara is ten days away from release and the promotional activities are going on. NTR flew to Chennai to promote the film in the city. There are a lot of discussions about the grand pre-release event to be held for the Telugu audience. The pre-release event will take place on the evening of September 22nd in Novotel, Hyderabad on Sunday.

The list of guests are yet to be finalized for now and the entire cast, crew members will be present for the grand event.

NTR will promote across the North Indian cities again and he is also expected to fly to the USA for the promotions of the film.
Despite scoring a demoralising flop with his last outing Acharya, which badly impacted his career graph and also dented his image due to several controversies, director Koratala Siva seems to have pocketed a hefty remuneration for his upcoming big-budget entertainer Devara. The NTR starrer is gearing up for a massive release worldwide on September 27th and the core team is currently busy with aggressive promotions.
Meanwhile, reports suggest that the Srimanthudu director is walking home with a fat paycheck. As per reliable sources, Koratala charged around 30 Crores for directing Devara. Despite the colossal failure of Chiranjeevi’s Acharya, which was termed as the weakest film in his career, Koratala demanded a handsome salary because he is confident on making a strong comeback.
It is a known fact that this is the second collaboration of NTR and Koratala after Janata Garage and the script work and other production activities lasted nearly two years. So, the makers didn’t bat an eyelid when the director quoted such a massive price. With Devara, he is hoping to join the ranks of Rajamouli, Sukumar and Nag Ashwin who scored pan-India blockbusters in recent years.
Koratala Siva is known for his stupendous scripts and solid dialogues. He delivered blockbusters with Mirchi, Srimanthudu and Bharat Ane Nenu. Janata Garage emerged as an above average grosser at the box office. If Devara turns out to be a massive hit, Koratala will join the league of acclaimed directors and hike his fees for upcoming projects.

Excited about the film, Sandeep Reddy Vanga extended his best wishes to the team. Ahead of the release, the Animal director interviewed Devara team, which included NTR, Saif Ali Khan, Janhvi Kapoor, and Koratala Siva. During the lively conversation, NTR and Koratala Siva shared intriguing details about Devara. During the interview, Vanga mentioned hearing about a significant underwater sequence that turned out exceptionally well and inquired about the large pool built in Hyderabad for the shoot.
NTR confirmed, “Yes, we constructed a huge pool in the studio to film action sequences. We spent around 30-35 days shooting both underwater and above water. This sequence is one of the most crucial parts of Devara Part 1, and several action scenes will truly captivate the audience.” NTR added, “In Devara, the characters revere ancestral weapons as if they were village deities. These weapons are extremely valuable to them, and they are willing to go to great lengths to protect them.” Speaking about Janhvi Kapoor, he praised, “She was outstanding in Devara. There is a particular scene where she gave an extraordinary performance that left me astonished.”
A young fan named Kaushik, who is battling blood cancer, recently expressed his heartfelt wish to see his favorite actor, NTR, in the upcoming film Devara before he passes away. Kaushik’s story has garnered widespread attention on social media, with NTR’s fans rallying to spread the word about his emotional request. Despite his busy schedule promoting Devara, NTR learned about Kaushik’s situation and made it a priority to connect with him.
The actor arranged a video call with Kaushik, which lasted around 10 minutes, to offer his support and encouragement. During the call, NTR reassured Kaushik with heartfelt words: “Films come later, but you need to recover and stay brave. Take care of your mother and father. We should meet after your recovery.” Kaushik responded gratefully, saying, “Thanks, Anna. I am brave, and I will fight the cancer.”
The video of their conversation has since gone viral on social media, showcasing NTR’s compassionate gesture and strengthening his reputation for maintaining a close bond with his fans.
The previous government in Andhra Pradesh has created many problems for producers and the ticket prices have been slashed for some of the films. Especially, Pawan Kalyan’s films were targeted. The new governments of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana are favourable for hiked ticket prices if the formal requests are placed. Devara is the next big release for Tollywood and the film is releasing on September 27th. The makers have placed the requests before both the governments and they are approved. But the official confirmation will arrive on Monday. As speculated on social media, the prices are not true.

NTR plays a dual role in Devara and Janhvi Kapoor plays the leading lady. Saif Ali Khan is the lead antagonist and Anirudh scored the music. Yuvasudha Arts and NTR Arts are the producers of Devara.
Man of Masses NTR, is currently busy with “Devara,” directed by Koratala Siva. Anticipation is high as fans look forward to this action-packed drama hitting the big screen. The film has already generated significant excitement with chartbuster songs and teaser. Thanks to its high-energy promotional campaign, the film’s buzz has escalated significantly, generating immense expectations in audience.
NTR’s commanding screen presence and exceptional performances have made this film one of the year’s most anticipated releases. Following chartbuster songs, recently the makers unveiled the film’s epic trailer at a grand launch event in Mumbai. The trailer for “Devara Part 1” has captured massive attention across the globe, racking up millions of views on YouTube in various languages.
The film’s premiere at Beyond Fest on September 26th at 6:30 PM PST will take place at the iconic Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles. This prestigious venue, renowned for its rich cinematic history, will host the red carpet event, marking a significant milestone as “Devara” becomes the first Indian film to be premiered there.
The event promises to be a star-studded affair, with numerous Hollywood celebrities expected to attend. The presence of these high-profile figures, alongside the Devara team, is anticipated to further amplify the film’s visibility on the global stage. This spotlight on such a renowned platform could significantly enhance the film’s reach and reception.
The film also stars Prakash Raj, Srikanth, Shine Tom Chacko, Ajay, Getup Srinu, and other ensemble cast members. The action-packed saga, planned as a two-part film, will debut with “Devara: Part 1” on September 27th. Presented by Nandamuri Kalyan Ram and produced by Mikkilineni Sudhakar and Hari Krishna K under the banners of NTR Arts and Yuvasudha Arts, “Devara” is set to make a major impact.
2024 is a mixed bag for Telugu cinema. Several biggies fell short of expectations while others did decently. With major stars like NTR, Ram Charan and Allu Arjun missing, the year is not an exciting one for the fans and the movie lovers. NTR is all set to test his luck with Devara after RRR. The actor wants to pave a strong platform on a pan-Indian scale with Devara and his promotional strategy is a clear hint of it. If Devara ends up as a super hit in North, the actor will have cement his position in North. He also has War 2 lined up and he would be an additional advantage for the film to perform well across the Hindi belt. Devara is also a crucial film for NTR as he is absent after the release of RRR and Devara is his solo release after six years.
Mega fans have been eagerly waiting for Ram Charan’s Game Changer and the film has been delayed by years. This is also the next release for Charan after RRR and he has been absent for a while. The result of Indian 2 has been haunting Mega fans as Shankar is the director. The film is expected to release during Christmas and the film is a crucial challenge for Charan to prove his stamina at the box-office. The film will also get a wide release in the North and the film’s performance in Hindi will have an impact on his upcoming movies. Allu Arjun is coming with his biggest attempt Pushpa 2: The Rule directed by Sukumar. The film is in the list of the most awaited Indian films this year. The film is also a crucial one for Allu Arjun. If the film does well in Hindi, several top and successful directors and producers of Bollywood will rush to lock Allu Arjun for their next.
The performance of Devara, Game Changer and Pushpa 2: The Rule are important for NTR, Ram Charan and Allu Arjun. The results will impact or influence their next films for sure.
Though NTR signed up director Koratala Siva in 2021 even before the release of RRR, the filming started nearly two years later in 2023 March. The major reasons behind the long delay were prolonged story sittings and numerous deliberations between the duo to lock the final script. After the disastrous result of Acharya, NTR wanted Koratala to take his own time and regain all his lost confidence. Finally, they promised to bring a larger-than-life script that will resonate with pan-India audiences and commenced the regular shooting.
The posters and the first look teaser created some buzz but the genre and the story appeared formulaic. But the expectations on the film kept on soaring in the last few months only because of Anirudh’s stupendous score for all three songs that were unveiled so far. With high stakes riding on this two part epic actioner, all it needed is a perfect trailer cut that will set high expectations ahead of the film’s release. So, how far have Koratala and NTR delivered with the trailer ?
The initial reaction of moviegoers from the two and a half minute trailer appears to be short of expectations as the content is underwhelming and doesn’t match the pan-India hype to the fullest. Except for the sumptuous visuals and high-octane action episodes that are mounted on a big scale and backed by Anirudh’s terrific work, there is nothing great to rave about in terms of the narrative and the lead characters.
Going by the trailer, one can easily predict that Devara is all about a Messiah who saves all those around him. The story is set in an island where Devara is a chieftain and Bhaira is a trusted aide. But, some malafide intention leads to some discord and the story takes a dramatic turn. Friends turning foes is a routine template used umpteen times. It looks like a regular revenge drama with NTR in dual roles.The son fulfills or achieves what his father left incomplete or he simply takes revenge on those who killed his father. While the father is portrayed as powerful and fearless, the son is initially presented as an innocent and timid person who later turns into a saviour like his father.
Just like the fictional world ‘Padhagattam’ in Acharya where the bad prevails over the good and need someone to set right everything, Devara has a fictional island which witnesses unbridled nefarious activities before NTR steps in to take a violent path as a solution. Saif Ali Khan’s looks and characterisation bear similarities to Sonu Sood’s role in Acharya. Some more scenes in the trailer are also l reminiscent of Acharya. So many are now of the opinion if this story really deserves two parts.
Coming to dialogues, Koratala Siva came up with heavy lines on ‘Fear’ and ‘Courage’ which are repeated several times in the trailer but they hardly make any big impact due to monotony. While we need to await for the theatrical experience to judge completely about the heavy-duty VFX, the visuals in the trailer appear decent as the night shots and scenes with sea backdrop are well presented. Janhvi Kapoor and other characters get little screen time as the trailer focuses entirely on the protagonist with elevations.
Overall, the much awaited trailer falls short of the high expectations in several aspects expect for the fact that it has visuals matching the big-ticket film tag. However, we need to see if both NTR and Koratala Siva can overcome all these shortcomings and pack a punch at the box office with this commercial potboiler.
‘Devara: Part 1’ is gearing up to be one of the biggest Indian films of 2024, and the anticipation is growing following glimpses and chartbuster songs from the film starring NTR Jr, the Man of Masses. Janhvi Kapoor is playing female lead. This epic saga will be released worldwide on September 27th. The film Devara is generating unprecedented excitement and anticipation and to fuel the buzz, makers dropped the theatrical trailer today at a grand launch event in Mumbai.
The trailer is a thrilling showcase of the mass stuff that NTR fans and action lovers eagerly anticipate. It highlights director Koratala Siva’s grand vision and the expansive world he has created. The trailer opens with Prakash Raj’s intense voiceover, introducing a coastal village populated by fearless people. This village thrives on a lifestyle of combat, ship looting, and ruthless violence against those who oppose them. NTR makes a powerful entrance as the Lord of Fear, stepping into a formidable role as he defends his village from looming threats. His story will be epic. NTR’s commanding screen presence, powerful dialogue delivery, and breathtaking elevation shots in the trailer have generated immense excitement. He will be seen in dual roles: one as the formidable Lord of Fear and the other as a character marked by profound fearfulness. Saif Ali Khan’s portrayal of the antagonist Bhaira is both menacing and captivating, and a tantalizing glimpse of the epic clash between NTR and Saif Ali Khan elevates the anticipation even further. Janhvi Kapoor’s portrayal of Thangam is striking, and her chemistry with NTR adds a layer of enchantment to the film.
The trailer also features Prakash Raj, Srikanth, Ajay, Getup Srinu, and a talented ensemble cast. With its stunning visuals, dynamic score, and impressive action sequences, the trailer delivers a captivating experience. A standout moment is the final shot of NTR riding a shark, which is particularly unforgettable. Overall, the trailer promises an exhilarating cinematic experience, offering just a glimpse into the epic world of Devara.
