The Devil, the long-delayed film starring Challenging Star Darshan, finally opened in theaters on Thursday and garnered a lot of interest in Karnataka and beyond. The movie has launched with an extraordinary number of shows, making its release one of the biggest cinematic events of the year for Kannada cinema, even though the actor is now under judicial prison in relation to the Renuka Swamy murder case.
In addition to an ensemble cast that includes Mahesh Manjrekar, Achyuth Kumar, Sharmiela Mandre, Roger Narayanan, Shobhraj, and Srinivas Prabhu, Rachana Rai plays opposite Darshan in this action-packed drama. B Ajaneesh Loknath wrote the music for The Devil, while Sudhakar S Raj handled the cinematography. The film’s huge grandeur will be complemented with visually stunning scenes.
The Devil, which was produced by Shri Jaimatha Productions and directed by Prakash Veer, has become a statewide phenomenon rather than just another weekly release. Theater reservations around Karnataka have been actively managed to satisfy demand, with distribution handled by Supreet and BK Gangadhar. When the movie opens on December 11, it is anticipated to take up about 90% of Karnataka’s single screens. According to industry observers, this might make it the largest morning show opening for a Kannada movie ever and possibly the best beginning for Darshan’s career.
The fact that the movie is gaining such traction without Darshan taking part in any marketing initiatives is what makes the reaction noteworthy. The film’s hype has been unaffected by his absence owing to the continuing legal processes because of the popularity of its songs, the intense trailer, and the constant discussion among fans on social media. Once again, Darshan’s devoted fan following has come out in force, bringing large crowds to theaters.
The storyline of the movie is referred to as “a saga of power, vengeance, and true love.” Darshan portrays an enigmatic lead character whose actual motivations are kept a secret until the very end. Large-scale action scenes, emotional drama, political intrigue, and personal grudges are all reportedly blended into the story, which is anticipated to be highly appealing to both Darshan’s fan base and general audiences.
The Devil is primed to have a blockbuster opening-one that will probably dominate the Kannada box office in the upcoming days, given its enormous screen count, record advance bookings, and the excitement around its release.
