Although Devara is the first solo film of Jr. NTR releasing to the Hindi audience, he seems to be already doing better than many conventional “superstars” of the industry.
The audience’s love for Jr. NTR is also visible from the fact that Devara collections on Day 5 saw a greater rise on the Hindi BO than they did on its Telugu counterpart.
While stars like Akshay Kumar and Salman Khan have struggled to survive, Jr. NTR has performed in a much more commendable manner, considering this being his first solo-release in Hindi Cinema.
