NTR Jr. is set to make a grand comeback with his latest film, Devara, directed by Koratala Siva. The buzz surrounding the film has been intense since ticket sales began, and with just two days until its release, excitement is at an all-time high.
Advance bookings in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana (APTS) are quite impressive, with early predictions suggesting a massive opening in the north, potentially exceeding Rs 65 crore, depending on pricing and early show permissions.

The film is also anticipated to perform well in Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu, where it could earn an additional Rs 10 to 15 crore.
Currently, North India is one of the weaker markets for Devara, but this could shift dramatically with positive reviews. Historically, this region tends to outperform others in the long run as we have seen with Pushpa and Kalki 2898 AD.

Early estimates for North India suggest gross collections of around Rs 7 to 9 crore, including dubbed versions.
Overall, Devara is expected to achieve an All India opening between Rs 80 to 85 crore gross. It can even touch 95 crore dependent on its reception in the north.

On the worldwide front, the film is projected to earn Rs 30 to 35 crore on its first day in the USA and other overseas markets, pushing its global opening to an impressive range of Rs 120 crore or more.
If Koratala Siva can deliver even a half-decent film, NTR Jr. may break the so-called ‘Post Rajamouli Curse’ and achieve remarkable success.
As anticipation builds, all eyes are now on the film’s content and audience reception.
