Devara was initially announced as a two-part film, following the trend of several recent pan-India blockbusters. However, this decision seems to have impacted the film’s pacing, with many viewers feeling the second half of the movie lagged, despite a strong start. A large section of the audience believes that the film could have easily been concluded in one part, with the climax twist failing to resonate with everyone.
The movie still achieved massive success at the box office, thanks to NTR’s immense stardom. The Telugu version alone grossed over 200 crores, positioning it among the top Telugu box-office performers of all time. However, excitement for Devara Part 2 seems to be waning. One of the main reasons is that the buildup to the second part didn’t strike the right chord with the audience. Following its OTT release, this sentiment has grown stronger, and even some NTR fans are questioning the necessity of a sequel.
This feedback is likely to affect the team, with rumors circulating that the sequel may be in doubt. NTR has committed to several upcoming projects, including War 2, a film with Prashanth Neel, and another project with Nelson Dilipkumar. Given the time these films will take to complete, it remains to be seen what decision director Koratala Siva and NTR will ultimately make regarding Devara Part 2.
