One of
telugu cinema's most calculating commercial directors,
koratala siva is now working on Devara, his most ambitious project to date. An intriguing information regarding the show times has been received as the
movie prepares for its
september 27 release.
Recent
social media reports suggest that Devara would perform late-night gigs throughout the
telugu states beginning at one in the morning. This is a rather ambitious idea, so it will be interesting to see if the team follows through on it. In an earlier
interview following the premiere of Janatha Garage,
koratala discussed the conflicting opinions that resulted from the early morning 4 AM concerts. "NTR has a greater
mass appeal anywhere. Furthermore, fans are the only ones that
watch the 4 AM presentations, and they have their own expectations for the movie. If those expectations are not realized, they express conflicting opinions. However, that is not the true audience. The actual
audience begins around 8:45 a.m.
After evaluating the conflicting opinions expressed in the Janatha Garage case, Koratala's decision to once more brave early performances for Devara has come up for criticism. Another intriguing feature is that 1 AM shows in
india imply that the program durations would be nearly identical to the USA debuts. Simultaneously, the 1 AM screenings will generate a lot of excitement for the film's theatrical release since a lot of
people will see it and then speak about it early in the day. Devara is taking a big chance by doing this. However, this might also indicate how confident
ntr and Siva, the team's two primary players, are.
