Reasons behind the Box Office Success of Devara :
Many factors have resulted in such an excellent collection at the box office for Devara Part 1:
1. Jr. NTR’s Star Power
Jr. NTR is one of the biggest stars of Telugu cinema, and his double role in Devara Part 1 has turned out to be one of the huge attractions among masses. His role as hero and also the non-heroic character within the movie has been superbly appreciated by everyone, and his enormous fan following has thronged all theaters to give this film a befitting opening.
2. Heavyweight Cast
The movie boasts of an excellent secondary cast- Saif Ali Khan plays the antagonist for the very first time in his Telugu career as Bhaira. His portrayal of the merciless villain has infused a new intensity to the movie. Then, there is Janhvi Kapoor who has become the new Telugu star with her role as Thangam, just as big a boost to the film.
Commercial cinema coupled with social themes is a forte that Director Koratala Siva is known for, and Devara Part 1 follows the same. Among all these things, the story of Devara Part 1 revolves around justice, power, and revenge which has been one of the major attractions to the cinema.
4. Visual Effects, Production Design
Visually, Devara Part 1 is an epic experience with tremendous dependability on effects. This has been compensated for the additional time taken for post-production and has provided some great action sequences and fabulous visual narrations. The cinematography of R. Rathnavelu and the editing by A. Sreekar Prasad added class to the film.
The music composed by Anirudh Ravichander has also been a notable success factor. Some singles like “Fear Song”, “Chuttamalle”, “Daavudi”, and “Ayudha Pooja” could go well with the taste of the audience. On top of providing the élan to the film’s emotional quotient and action sequences, the background score gives the movie an all-rounded cinematic experience.
Conclusion: What’s Next for Devara?
With Devara Part 1 continuing well at the box office, already the fans are waiting for Devara Part 2, when all those cliffhangers and pieces unsolved in the first installment will be carried forward and done justice to. The stakes for the success of Devara Part 2 are already high since the part one has managed to strike a chord successfully, but with the same creative team and star power driving it, expectations soar.
With Day 13 likely to take the film past ₹255 crore in India, Devara Part 1 already stands as one of the biggest hits of 2024. The question now is how much further it will go with its worldwide collection expected to grow well as it continues to captivate audiences across the globe.
