• Sunday: Rs 12.25 crore (Hindi: Rs 3.75 crore)
• Total: Rs 243.1 crore (Hindi: Rs 52.75 crore)

Devara grossed Rs 32 crore overall in its second weekend. The film's performance at the worldwide level is also extraordinary. As per the official statement by the makers, it has grossed Rs 466 crore in 10 days and is making its way towards the Rs 500 crore gross club. The film, also starring Janhvi Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan, is expected to run smoothly for a few more days in the absence of any big releases. However, with the festive window ahead, the collections are likely to improve, and the ultimate projection for the film is around Rs 350 crore gross domestically.

However, it is going to face a big challenge from Rajinikanth's Vettaiyan, which is hitting the screens on October 10 as the big Dussehra release.
