The much-awaited moment for Jr NTR’s fans has finally arrived with Devara hitting theatres. Directed by Koratala Shiva, the film stars Jr NTR, Janhvi Kapoor, and Saif Ali Khan. The excitement around this movie has been high, especially after the blockbuster success of RRR. Fans had been waiting eagerly for this release, and it seems Devara is living up to the hype. The film’s impressive visuals and gripping performances have grabbed everyone’s attention. Pre-booking numbers alone indicate the movie might cross Rs 100 crore on its opening day, making it a sure shot hit.
However, along with all this excitement comes some disappointing news for the fans. Devara is set to release in two parts, and recent updates suggest the wait for the second part could be longer than expected.
Packed Schedules Might Delay Devara Part 2’s Production
Director Koratala Shiva, who managed to wrap up the first part of Devara in just a year, revealed in a recent interview that scheduling conflicts may delay the sequel. While the team has already completed shooting some portions of Devara Part 2, the remaining production depends on the availability of the lead actors. This has left many fans worried, as the key cast members — Jr NTR, Saif Ali Khan, and Janhvi Kapoor — all have multiple projects lined up, making it tough to predict when shooting for the sequel will resume.
Jr NTR, fresh off the success of RRR, is already committed to two major films: War 2, where he stars alongside Hrithik Roshan, and a highly anticipated project with director Prashant Neel, rumored to be titled Dragon. Both projects are expected to keep him busy in the coming months, making it uncertain when he will have time for Devara Part 2.
Will the Devara Sequel Release Next Year?
Koratala Shiva has stated that despite the challenges, he’s hopeful to finish shooting Devara Part 2 within 6-8 months, once the team can gather again. He is optimistic about wrapping up the sequel quickly due to the experience gained during the production of the first part. However, given the current commitments of Jr NTR and his co-stars, it remains unclear whether the sequel will be ready anytime soon.
Saif Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor also have their hands full with other projects, adding to the potential delay. While fans were hoping for a quicker turnaround, it seems the wait for Devara Part 2 might be longer than anticipated.
