NTR's Devara is one of the hit films released in Telugu this year. The film enjoyed an impressive theatrical run, grossing over 400 crores worldwide. Following its streaming release on November 8, the film quickly climbed to the #1 trending spot on Netflix.
However, post-OTT release, Devara has encountered significant criticism on social media. Director Koratala Siva is under fire for what many are calling lazy writing and subpar direction. Even ardent NTR fans, who initially supported the film during its theatrical release, are now voicing their dissatisfaction.
The fans are not happy with the film’s climax—which was intended as a suspenseful lead-in to Devara 2—has become the target of mockery online. Amidst this backlash, a portion of NTR’s fanbase is urging the producers to reconsider moving forward with the sequel. They does not want the sequel to happen.
The fans argue that the sequel should be made only if there is a mindblowing story arc for the second part and if not, they should call off the project to avoid criticism further.
