Advance Booking Collections
A thunderstorm was expected at the box office, given the action drama scored the second-highest pre-sales of 2024. It earned 49.90 crores gross (excluding blocked seats) via advance booking for the opening day. It was only after Prabhas’ Kalki 2898 AD (55.30 crores gross).
Devara Day 1 Early Estimates
As per the early trends, Devara made box office collection in the range of 74-78 crores on day 1. Telangana, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh majorly contributed with tremendous footfalls.
