After its debut on OTT, Devara faced significant trolling, with social media flooded with memes mocking Koratala Siva's formulaic writing and unrealistic action sequences.
Many critics labeled the film’s narrative as boring, sparking questions about its theatrical success.
Despite the backlash, Koratala Siva is optimistic about Devara 2 and has already begun scripting it, aiming to take the project to sets next year.
Contrary to rumors suggesting NTR might lose interest due to the trolling, Siva remains confident in the sequel's potential.
In Bollywood, sequels like Stree 2 and Pushpa 2 have generated massive excitement and set new benchmarks. Siva believes Devara 2 can achieve similar success, despite the online criticism.
However, financial issues between NTR and the producers need to be resolved before the sequel can move forward.
