South star Jr NTR, who is gearing up for the release of Devara: Part 1, recently came to Mumbai for the trailer launch. During his stay in the city, he caught up with his RRR co-star Alia Bhatt and the duo recorded a promotional video with director Karan Johar. While Karan has the North theatrical distribution rights to the Telugu film Devara, he is also producing Alia's next film Jigra.
