While promoting ‘Devara: Part 1’ in Chennai, Jr NTR expressed his admiration for director Vetrimaaran, sparking fan hopes of a future collaboration. When asked about doing a straight Tamil film, he replied, "I’ll do one with Vetrimaaran sir and we can dub it in Telugu," drawing cheers from the audience.
This isn’t the first time Jr NTR and Vetrimaaran have shown interest in working together. While promoting ‘Viduthalai’ in Hyderabad last year, Vetrimaaran revealed that he had met Jr NTR after ‘Asuran’ to discuss a potential collaboration. He said, “We’ve talked, so it’s bound to happen. But I take time with my films, which is the only issue. Otherwise, we’re eager to try.”
At the same promotional event in Chennai, Janhvi Kapoor made headlines by speaking fluent Tamil in public for the first time. She won over fans by expressing her deep connection to the city, especially through her late mother, Sridevi.
Janhvi said, "Chennai is very special to me. My best memories with my mom are from here. The love you gave her is why my family and I are here. I’ll always be indebted to you and hope you show me the same love."
Jr NTR was visibly impressed by Janhvi's effort and fluency in Tamil. She further added, "I promise to work very, very hard. ‘Devara’ is special to me, and I truly hope from the bottom of my heart that you enjoy what we've created."
