Koratala Siva’s Devara: Part 1, featuring Jr NTR, Saif Ali Khan, and Janhvi Kapoor, premiered in theaters on September 27 and grossed an impressive ₹509 crore worldwide within 16 days. However, since its OTT release on Netflix on November 8, the film has sparked a mixed wave of reactions on social media, with viewers sharing both positive feedback and harsh critiques.
Many fans on X (formerly Twitter) have begun pointing out the film’s perceived flaws, with some even suggesting that the sequel, Devara: Part 2, be shelved. Despite the critiques, Anirudh Ravichander’s music has been widely praised, with fans calling it the film’s “saving grace” and comparing its quality to that of a Hollywood epic, like Gladiator. Memes have circulated, humorously highlighting how Devara’s staunch defenders have shifted to critiquing it post-OTT release.
Here’s a look at the reactions and opinions:
In defense of the film, Jr NTR, who previously addressed the criticism post-theatrical release, stands by Koratala Siva’s work. He stated that Devara: Part 2 is still in the pipeline, though the director plans to take a short break before proceeding. Meanwhile, Jr NTR has already begun shooting for a Prashanth Neel project and is set to make his Bollywood debut with Ayan Mukherji’s War 2, alongside Hrithik Roshan and Kiara Advani.
The next steps for the Devara franchise remain uncertain, but Jr NTR’s fans continue to eagerly await his upcoming projects.
