The highly anticipated film Devara: Part 1 featuring Jr NTR, Saif Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor will be showcased at the Beyond Fest 2024. The film festival, held annually in Los Angeles, will feature Devara: Part 1 alongside other big releases including Godzilla Minus One and Salem’s Lot. The announcement was made on the festival’s official X platform (formerly Twitter), where they unveiled their comprehensive lineup for the event, scheduled from September 25 to October 9.

Beyond Fest shared the film’s poster and wrote, “Important ticketing update! Tickets for Jr NTR’s new epic DEVARA: PART 1 will be released next week, NOT tomorrow. We’ll announce when they go live shortly."

The fest promises to be a cinematic feast with 82 features screening across four theatres. The festival will offer a mix of genres and styles, including a fresh adaptation of Stephen King’s Salem’s Lot, and various Godzilla films such as Shin Godzilla: ORTHOchromatic and Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color. Additionally, the fest will present the historical drama The Apprentice, some classic Sam Raimi films, and a special ‘Shush Cut’ of Hush among other exciting entries.

Speaking of Devara Part 1, the makers recently shared the trailer on YouTube which begins with Saif Ali Khan’s character Bhaira and his followers enjoying a fear-free life and killing innocent people. But the arrival of Jr NTR’s character, Devara, shatters his peace. The clip shows Bhaira shaking hands with Devara, but it is all part of his plan. He then backstabs Devara so that he and his followers can continue looting. In the film, Janhvi Kapoor plays the role of a village girl, Thangam, who falls in love with Devara’s son (also played by Jr NTR).

The film also features Prakash Raj, Shine Tom Chacko, Shruti Marathe, and Murli Sharma. Directed by Koratala Siva, Devara Part 1 will be released in cinemas on September 27 in Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi. The film has already earned over $1 million in pre-sales from bookings for its North American premieres.
