Hyderabad: Jr NTR fans are buzzing with excitement as the trailer for his new movie, ‘Devara: Part 1,’ releases today, September 10. Directed by Koratala Siva, the film is one of the most talked-about releases this year, especially since it’s Jr NTR’s big return after his amazing performance in ‘RRR.’ With the movie coming out on September 27, fans are counting down the days.
Record-Breaking Ticket Sales in the U.S.
While Indian fans are waiting for ticket sales to start, audiences in the U.S. have already begun buying tickets. The response has been incredible! ‘Devara: Part 1’ has made over 1 million USD in advance sales, even before the trailer dropped. This is a big deal, as no other Indian film has done this before in pre-sales.
It’s even beating big movies like Prabhas’ ‘Salaar’ and ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ in terms of advance bookings. For comparison, Koratala Siva’s previous film ‘Acharya’ didn’t even hit the 1 million USD mark during its entire run in the U.S., while ‘Devara’ has already done it weeks before release. This shows just how popular Jr NTR is in North America, and that Koratala Siva still has a strong fanbase.
