Directed by Koratala Siva, the film features Jr NTR in dual roles as Devara and Varadha. Janhvi portrays Thangam, Jr NTR’s love interest. Saif Ali Khan plays the antagonist, Bhaira.

Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared Devara‘s weekend box office numbers and claimed that the film “lives up to the mighty expectations”. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), he wrote, “STRONG WEEKEND… Jr NTR had to score impressive numbers after delivering a smash-hit [RRR], and Devara lives up to the mighty expectations, reaffirming the actor’s star-power.” 

He added, “Despite the low-key buzz around the Hindi version, Devara delivered a good score in its opening weekend… The mass circuits performed exceptionally well, while major national chains – which started slow on Friday morning – saw a significant pickup, ultimately yielding decent to strong results. Looking ahead, the #GandhiJayanti holiday on Wednesday is expected to give the business a boost, but before that, the Monday-Tuesday numbers need to stay steady.”
