Khoon se samundar ko laal kardene waali kahaani,” suggests that the film will have a lot of bloodshed. With electrifying action sequences and an emotional background story, the film will see Jr NTR in dual roles as both father and son.

In a storyline, which showcases two generations, NTR Jr plays the role of Devara, a saviour while Saif essays shades of grey. Janhvi Kapoor , who is making her debut in Telugu films with Kortala Siva’s film, plays the role of the Telugu superstar’s love interest. However, their romance was not showcased in the trailer. In the trailer, Devara’s son is tagged as “harmless”.

With over-the-top visuals, nail-biting action sequences and a stellar cast, the film promises to be a spectacle. What is interesting to see is the fight between the two actors.
