But predictable screenplay makes it an Okay watch, 2.75/5 1st half #Devil,” adding, “A film spoiled by writer/Director.. #Devil wait for OTT 2.5/5.”

Em BGM kottav ra babu literally goosebumps. Akkada worst scene unna sare nee bgm mathram thaggaledhu. Your BGM gave me goosebumps. Your music stuck with me even in scenes that were horrible.”
Devil 2 announced
Celebrating the film’s release, Kalyanram visited Brahmaramba and Sudarshan 35mm theatres in Hyderabad to watch the movie with fans. He later celebrated with the cast and crew in Filmnagar.
Announcing that a sequel for the film will be made, Kalyanram mistakenly called the film Bimbisara, his last hit in 2022. “Sorry, not Bimbisara 2, I meant Devil 2. The film will be made in 2024 and released in 2025. This is not a spontaneous decision, our writer Srikanth pitched the idea to us last December. It’s an exciting plot,” he said.
Teasing fans about the plot, he said, “One interesting thing about Devil 2 is that the film will show both the 1940s and 2000s era. It’s going to be exciting.”
