Hello, I was trying to root my samsung s duos 3 (sm-g313hu) with kingoroot. but when itwas 37% rooted (as shown on kingoroot) it got stuck. I waited for a long time before disconnecting it from my pc. then i tried to reboot my phone but it only shows the device model name and a tiny (!) mark on top of the screen. I can go to recovery mode (power+home+vol.up). It shows "downloding do not turn off target. Is it totally bricked or is there anything i can do about it?
 
No, you have not. Happens because Kingo does not support this model.
Happened to me. It was under warranty, gave it to the friendly service center telling him that it happened during software update. He fixed it in a day. No questions asked, no charges...

Need to be careful in future, though...
