Telugu states and mass centers in the North join the party!
After giving a thunderous blockbuster, RRR, this was the real test for Jr NTR as there was no brand of SS Rajamouli to support him. And guess what? The Tollywood superstar has passed the litmus test with flying colors. Known for his superb pull over the Telugu audience, NTR flexed the growth of stardom by fetching historic numbers in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana combined.
Surprisingly, Jr NTR’s Devara is performing better than expected in the mass centers of North India. Cities like Bhubaneswar, which are known for enjoying mass entertainers, are doing brilliantly. Speaking state-wise, after Telugu states, Karnataka and Maharashtra are driving good business.
After raking in 39 crores on Saturday, Devara witnessed some growth on day 3 and collected a solid 42 crores. Yes, the film crossed the 40-crore mark on Sunday, taking the total to 164 crores net (all languages) at the Indian box office in the opening weekend. This is a strong 3-day collection, and in a couple of days, the film is expected to make a smooth entry into the 200 crore club.
