Devara Part 1 Leaked Online After Release

Devara: Part 1, featuring Jr NTR, Janhvi Kapoor, and Saif Ali Khan, was released in theaters on September 27, 2024, marking Jr NTR's first solo film in six years. The action thriller, directed by Koratala Siva, garnered significant box office success, earning Rs 161 crore domestically within three days and over Rs 145 crore globally on its opening day, making it the second-biggest Indian opener of the year. However, the film faced a setback as it was leaked online shortly after its release, becoming available on various torrent sites, which has raised concerns about piracy in the film industry. The narrative, inspired by the Karamchedu massacre, explores themes of caste oppression and features a dual role for Jr NTR. Devara: Part 1 is set to premiere on Netflix approximately 50 days post-release, with the streaming service reportedly acquiring its digital rights for Rs 100 crore. The filmmakers urge audiences to support legal viewing to combat piracy and protect the rights of creators.
