Ahead of Devara: Part 1‘s release, Jr NTR talked about the underwater sequences in the film. He said, “We had one option of shooting it in Kapoli because that was one of the biggest pools we had. And then, for some strange reason we decided to overspend and create a pool in the studio, in which we were shooting for predominantly our action sequences. It was a massive pool because we shot for about 30-35 odd days underwater. Underwater, over the water, underwater, over the water. That is a phenomenal episode…It is one of the most key sequences of Devara. And again, we are speaking about a world which is in the coastal regions of India. So, we really had a lot of water elements. Shoot on water, shoot in water,” in a chat with Sandeep Reddy Vanga.
Devara: Part 1 has been produced by NTR Arts and Yuvasudha Arts.
