Updated : Sep 24, 2024
Koratala Siva, a talented writer, made his directorial debut with "Mirchi," and quickly gained recognition with successful films such as "Srimanthudu," "Janatha Garage," "Bharat Ane Nenu," and "Acharya." His upcoming project, "Devara," features NTR in the lead role and will be released in two parts, with the first installment scheduled for September 27.
His career biggest flop was Acharya starring Megastar Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan. He faced lot of issues from Distributors, trolls from fans and criticism from everyone. It is known that Megastar Chiranjeevi garu also indirectly blamed Koratala for Acharya flop. Now, during recent interaction with media about Devara, Koratala Siva talked about Acharya and his relations with Megastar.
He said, MegastarChiranjeevi garu is the first man to text me that "You will bounce back strong siva," after Achary release. Unnecessarily, people mistook his words in interviews. Things were & are always good between Chiranjeevi Garu & me. It was the media who ‘imagined’ a rift between us and wrote out-of-context articles."
These words from Koratala Siva shocked everyone who imagined that there is a silence rift between Megastar and the director. Koratala also expressed that if he gets a chance, he would love to work with Megastar Chiranjeevi garu once again. He added, "It's unfortunate that Acharya flopped, so I took extra care for Devara like every failed student will do. There is no pressure of Acharya failure on me. Because, we've started Devara work 4 days after Acharya release."
The filming for "Devara: Part 2" is anticipated to begin before the end of 2025, ensuring Siva remains busy in the coming years as he prepares for future collaborations.
