He revealed how he encouraged Koratala Siva to take a break after the intense schedule of the first part. “I told him, this is my gift to you. Go away for a month, re-energise, recalibrate, and then we will write Devara 2,” Jr NTR said, underlining his confidence in the project’s continuation.
What Fans Can Expect
The announcement has sent waves of anticipation across social media. Fans are eager to see how the story unfolds after the gripping cliffhanger, with many speculating about character arcs for Saif Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor, who featured in the first installment. The sequel is expected to delve deeper into unanswered questions while expanding the film’s grand cinematic universe.
