Devara: Part 1 trailer

In 2-minutes-39-seconds Koratala sets up the world of Devara: Part 1 with a tale that ‘turned the sea red’. The place where Saif’s character and his men reside, fear doesn’t exist. But the arrival of Jr NTR’s character changes all that. While seemingly shaking hands with him, Saif’s character seems to have a long-drawn plan to defeat the man who taught them fear. Janhvi is shown as a village belle who’s in love with the titular character’s son, also played by Jr NTR. While the trailer hints that he’s nothing like his father, he might have no choice but to rise to the occasion when needed.

While in Mumbai, Jr NTR met his RRR co-star Alia Bhatt and filmmaker Karan Johar. Fan pages on X (formerly Twitter) shared pictures of their meeting. In them, Jr NTR, Alia, and Karan pose for pictures.

In some other photos, they’re chatting away as ‘Devara ka Jigra’ is written behind them. Both Jr NTR and Karan opted for casual blue-toned looks, while Alia opted for a black dress and matching heels. A promotional video of the same is expected to come out soon.

Jr NTR, Saif and Janhvi are busy promoting their upcoming film, Devara: Part 1 in Mumbai. Saif and Jr NTR opted for beige looks, while Janhvi opted for a blue half-saree style beaded outfit for the promotions. A recent picture of the actor with director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has also sparked discussion.
