According to a new announcement from the producers, Jr NTR’s highly anticipated film Devara will be released in two parts. It is logical for the producers to follow the trend of sequels and additional sections. Following the popularity of films such as Baahubali and Ponniyin Selvan, filmmakers are attempting to make the most of a single tale. The sequel to Allu Arjun’s Pushpa is already in the works, and there are several sequels to blockbuster films like Kaithi, Vikram, and others in the works. Now, Jr NTR’s Devara is the latest to join the fray.
Koratala Siva, the film’s director, stated on social media that the big-budget spectacle will be split into two parts since one film would not do the characters credit. “The film is set against the forgotten lands of coastal India, and the canvas is too large,” he explained. As we began shooting the film, the canvas showed itself and grew larger and larger. Every character in the film carries their own weight, and they must be investigated and defined in depth and complexity, which we cannot justify in a single scene. As a result, we decided to divide the plot and canvas into two sections.
