Released on September 27, 2024, the film has generated substantial buzz, not only for its star-studded cast but also for its impressive box office performance.

Box Office Performance

As of the latest reports, Devara has earned approximately ₹21.8 crore in just the first 12 hours of its release at the Indian box office. This figure is part of a broader projection that anticipates the film could gross between ₹140 to ₹150 crore worldwide by the end of its first day. The film’s early success is attributed to strong advance bookings, which reportedly reached around ₹75 crore globally prior to its release.

Audience Reception and Critical Response

While Devara has garnered mixed reviews from audiences and critics alike, the excitement surrounding its release is palpable. The film’s action-packed narrative, combined with Jr NTR’s dual role and Saif Ali Khan’s portrayal of the antagonist, has captured significant attention.

The director, Koratala Siva, known for his previous successes in Telugu cinema, has crafted a story that resonates with fans of action dramas. The music composed by Anirudh Ravichander has also contributed to the film’s appeal, enhancing its overall cinematic experience.

Key Cast

  • Jr NTR as the lead (dual role)
  • Janhvi Kapoor as the female lead
  • Saif Ali Khan as the antagonist
  • Supporting roles include Prakash Raj, Shine Tom Chacko, and Murali Sharma.

Historical Context

If Devara achieves its projected earnings of ₹140 crore on its first day, it will rank among the highest opening day collections for Indian films. Currently, films like RRR and Baahubali 2 hold the top spots with collections exceeding ₹200 crore on their opening days. However, Devara is set to surpass several major Bollywood releases including Jawan and Animal, which grossed ₹129 crore and ₹116 crore respectively on their opening days.

Future Projections

Industry analysts are optimistic about Devara’s potential to continue performing well beyond its opening day. With strong word-of-mouth marketing and positive audience reactions expected to build momentum over the weekend, projections suggest that it could maintain high ticket sales in subsequent days.

The film’s multi-language release strategy—covering Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada—aims to capture a broad audience base across India and internationally. This approach is likely to bolster its box office performance significantly.
