The latest Kannada action entertainer marks the comeback of D Boss after almost two years. He was last seen in Kaatera (2023). Despite a huge budget of 50 crores, it managed to become a successful affair by scoring 68.1 crore net at the Indian box office. Compared to Kaatera, D Boss’ latest release was made on a much lower budget, making things easy for it.
The Devil carries a controlled budget
While there’s no official word about the budget, The Devil was reportedly made at 20 crores. Against this cost, the film must earn 20 crore net at the Indian box office to enter the safe zone and avoid being a failure. Based on the buzz surrounding the film, it is expected to enter the safe zone within 2-3 days.

How much does The Devil need to become a hit at the Indian box office?
To secure a hit verdict, a film must make 100% returns, as per Koimoi’s parameters. So, The Devil will need to score a net collection of 40 crores to become a clean hit. Achieving 40 crore net collection isn’t a big task for the Darshan starrer, and if initial word of mouth comes out in favor, the target will be achieved in the opening week itself.
