Jr NTR starrer Devara: Part 1 had massive pre-release hype in India, but unfortunately, it didn’t live as much as expectations. The film received a mixed response from each critics and audiences. Made on a reported budget of INR 300 crores, it collected only INR 292 crores (approx) across all languages in India (via Sacnilk).
Nevertheless, streaming and satellite rights would have contributed significantly, possibly making it a commercially viable enterprise. The film also recently secured a Japanese release. Despite this, Devara: Part 1‘s underwhelming theatrical performance and the shortage of updates about its sequel led to rumors that the project had been shelved.
Nevertheless, Jr NTR recently attended the success celebration of the MAD Square film, where he addressed these rumors and confirmed that Devara: Part 2 is heading in the right direction. He said, “The film is occurring soon, and it will not be shelved. I even have Prashanth Neel’s film, and Devara 2 will occur needless to say.”
The delay in Devara 2 is reportedly as a consequence of Jr NTR’s packed schedule. He’s currently wrapping up the shoot for War 2 and can then complete his film with Prashanth Neel. The actor also revealed that he’ll work on a movie directed by Nelson Dilipkumar and produced by S. Naga Vamsi. Per current expectations, Devara: Part 2 will likely go on floors in 2026 on the earliest.
