“If there is a Novelistic set-up, you need strong characters that drag you into their journey through emotional connection. #Devara fails to even barely connect us with the protagonist and the world seems too convenient for some “borrowed” visuals. While Anirudh tried his best, the superficiality never impresses us at any point,” one user wrote on X.
“Overall a low-grade 1st half with a slightly better but still outdated 2nd half! Apart from a few scenes and enjoyable dances, nothing else works. Outdated screenplay/story with poor BGM and VFX. Kortala’s Weakest Work than #Acharya .”
One user wrote, “Just finished watching #Devara and I’m blown away! The visuals, the action, the performances… everything is top-notch. #JrNTR absolutely delivers a powerhouse performance. This is shaping up to be the next big South Indian blockbuster, right up there with Baahubali. Can’t wait to see it again!”
Meanwhile, ahead of the release of ‘Devara: Part 1’, fans have gathered outside the theatres to watch their favourite star Jr NTR on-screen. Jr NTR fans gathered at Sudarshan Theatre and they can be seen dancing and shouting as they express their excitement and love for their favourite actor.
