Buzz: Koratala guarantees that Janhvi will play a major role in the follow-up!

Many fans have voiced their displeasure with Janhvi Kapoor's portrayal of Thangam in Koratala Siva's film Devara: Part 1. Her Telugu debut is highly anticipated, yet she only gets to spend roughly fifteen minutes on screen.

She hardly appears in two songs and spends most of her time in the second half of the movie, which has disappointed viewers as well as Janhvi Kapoor. Because of her small part, Janhvi Kapoor's character's importance in the upcoming Devara 2 has come up for criticism. According to reports, director Koratala Siva promised fans that her character would play a bigger role in the follow-up.

Though it's unclear exactly how well-known Thangam will be. Filming for the second installment is anticipated to start in late 2025 or early 2026, following Kapoor's completion of her work on Ram Charan's Telugu film RC16. At the box office, Devara: Part 1 has been doing well and making a sizable profit since its September 27, 2024, debut. Despite some arguments such as this one, the film has allegedly made over ₹230 crore so far, demonstrating considerable audience interest.
