The excitement for Junior NTR’s upcoming film “Devara” is reaching new heights as the release date approaches. Scheduled to hit theaters on 27th September, the film is already creating waves among fans. With a stellar cast that includes Saif Ali Khan, Janhvi Kapoor, and Junior NTR, the movie promises to be a blockbuster. Fans are eagerly waiting to witness the action-packed drama that also stars Prakash Raj, Shine Tom Chacko, Srikanth, Murali Sharma, and Shruti Marathe in important roles.
To cater to the growing demand, the makers have taken special measures to ensure that fans get a chance to watch the film as soon as possible.
Midnight Shows Added Due to Unbelievable Craze
Reports suggest that the filmmakers are planning midnight shows to meet the demand. According to 123Telugu, more than 15 special midnight shows are scheduled to take place in Telangana, on both single screens and multiplexes. However, only 15 screens will host these late-night shows. Additionally, the film will start playing in multiplexes as early as 4 am.
Though the makers have not officially confirmed these reports, the buzz surrounding the midnight shows indicates that the film’s fan base is eager to catch the earliest possible screenings. This move could boost earnings, especially in Telangana, where there is a massive fan following for Junior NTR.
Why Midnight Shows Will Benefit “Devara”
The decision to add midnight shows is a strategic one. In the South Indian film industry, fans have a deep connection with their favorite stars. Midnight shows will allow people, especially those who work late, to comfortably watch the film after finishing their day. By releasing the film on single screens, the makers are ensuring that fans from all walks of life can easily attend these special shows.
This strategy is expected to significantly boost ticket sales and help the film earn more during its opening weekend.
Record-Breaking Advance Bookings in the US and Australia
The craze for “Devara” is not limited to India. Fans across the globe are eagerly awaiting the release of this film. In the United States, the film has already set a new record in advance bookings, with 45,000 tickets sold before the release. This massive pre-sale has helped the film earn 14.65 crore even before its release.
The film’s Instagram page shared this impressive news, stating that “Devara” is ready to create history. Similarly, in Australia, the film has crossed the 56 lakh mark in pre-sales, showcasing the worldwide anticipation for the movie.
Trailer Builds Anticipation for the Action Drama
The trailer for “Devara” was released on 10th September and has been a hit with the audience. The trailer begins with scenes of intense violence, featuring Saif Ali Khan in a powerful villainous role. He is seen ruthlessly killing people on a ship, setting the tone for the intense drama that follows.
A powerful voiceover can be heard in the trailer: “No caste, no religion, no fear…” The trailer then shifts focus to Junior NTR’s character, Devara, who makes a grand entrance. The clash between Junior NTR and Saif Ali Khan promises to be one of the key highlights of the film.
Junior NTR plays a double role in “Devara,” portraying both a father and a son. In one of the key moments in the trailer, Janhvi Kapoor says, “His face may resemble his father, but he has no courage at all,” adding another layer to the family drama. Janhvi, making her debut in the South Indian film industry with this movie, is also a major draw for the audience.
A Pan-India Release with a Massive Budget
Directed by Koratala Siva, “Devara” is being released as a pan-India film, which means that it will be available in multiple languages across the country. The movie is reportedly made on a budget of Rs 300 crore, ensuring that the visuals, action sequences, and overall production are grand in scale.
With so much buzz and anticipation surrounding the film, “Devara” is expected to make a big impact at the box office both in India and abroad. Fans are counting down the days to see Junior NTR and the stellar cast in action.
