Jr. NTR's Devara smashes 100K dollars mark in U.S. pre-sales, shows strong demand

Telugu superstar Jr. NTR makes a highly anticipated return to the big screen with the action drama Devara: Part 1. Directed by Koratala Siva, the film also stars Saif Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor in key roles.

Set to release on September 27, Devara has already generated significant buzz, evidenced by its impressive pre-sales performance. According to Sacnilk, with four weeks remaining until its release, the film has garnered a $100K gross collection in the USA from limited showings, with some premiere shows already sold out. This early success hints at the potential for Devara to achieve a record-breaking solo premiere for NTR in North America.

The excitement surrounding Devara is partly fueled by the massive success of Jr. NTR's previous film, RRR (2022), which earned over $15 million in North America, a notable achievement for an Indian film. Produced by Yuvasudha Arts and NTR Arts, Devara represents the second collaboration between Jr. NTR and director Koratala Siva, following their successful partnership on Janatha Garage (2016). Unlike their previous project, Devara will be released in multiple languages, including Hindi, Malayalam, Kannada, and Tamil.
