The anticipation for Jr NTR’s highly awaited film ‘Devara: Part 1’ reached a fever pitch with the release of a gripping new trailer. Dropped on social media just ahead of the movie’s September 27 premiere, the trailer has left fans buzzing with excitement.
Jr NTR, fresh off the global success of ‘RRR’, took to Instagram to share the two-and-a-half-minute trailer, introducing a rich, action-packed storyline set against a coastal backdrop. The video opens with a dramatic scene, featuring Jr NTR sitting by the sea as its waters ominously turn red, all while he speaks about his dreams—hinting at the larger battle for power that is about to unfold.
As the trailer progresses, we are introduced to Saif Ali Khan, who plays the role of Bhaira, a ruthless and fearsome figure. Saif’s character, a master of wrestling (kushti), has a formidable presence, and his world seems unshakable—until Jr NTR’s character, Devara, enters the scene, setting the stage for an intense rivalry.

One of the major highlights of the trailer is the electrifying dance sequence featuring both Jr NTR and Saif Ali Khan, offering a brief yet entertaining glimpse of their chemistry. In addition to its dramatic and emotional beats, the trailer showcases epic action sequences, including large-scale sea battles that promise to be visually spectacular. The atmosphere is charged with intensity, mass elevations, and suspense, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.
Adding to the star power, the film features a strong supporting cast, including Prakash Raj, Srikanth Meka, Tom Shine Chacko, and Narain. Janhvi Kapoor also makes an appearance as Thangam, a village girl who shares a romantic connection with Jr NTR’s son, adding emotional depth to the otherwise action-heavy plot. Her character hints at a subplot that could bring warmth to the high-stakes drama.
What has fans even more excited is the revelation that Jr NTR will be playing dual roles—Devara and Varadha. His portrayal of these characters is expected to be crucial to the film’s unfolding narrative, which revolves around shifting power dynamics in a coastal region. The trailer teases that Saif Ali Khan’s Bhaira is on a mission to overpower Devara and take control, but the plot is thick with twists and turns, suggesting a tactical battle between the two.
Directed by Koratala Siva, the man behind the blockbuster ‘Janatha Garage’, ‘Devara: Part 1’ is expected to be a massive hit. Siva is known for blending high-octane action with emotional storytelling, and this latest venture looks no different. Jr NTR’s powerful on-screen presence, combined with Saif’s menacing role, promises a gripping cinematic experience.
The trailer was launched at a high-profile event in Mumbai, drawing in excitement from both fans and critics. As Jr NTR wrote on Instagram, “Can’t wait for you all to experience ‘Devara’ this Sept 27th!”
Produced by Kosaraju Hari Krishna and Sudhakar Mikkilineni under NTR Arts and Yuvasudha Arts, ‘Devara: Part 1’ will be released in multiple languages, including Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi, making it accessible to a broad audience across India.
