NTR’s Devara has proven to be a massive success at the Telugu box office, solidifying its position as a true blockbuster. Unlike many recent major films, including pan-India hits like RRR, KGF2, and Pushpa, which struggled to achieve breakeven, Devara has delivered a profitable run for all its buyers.
This success is attributed to several factors, including reasonable distribution prices, fair ticket pricing, and most notably, NTR’s immense star power, which attracted a large number of audiences. The film’s Telugu version alone has amassed over ₹200 crore in share, with the Andhra and Nizam regions contributing significantly. With a breakeven point of ₹160 crore, Devara has already surpassed 125% of its theatrical rights, making it a resounding hit.
