Koratala Siva, once regarded as one of the most successful Telugu directors, has built an impressive track record with continuous blockbusters.
His journey began with Prabhas’ Mirchi, followed by Srimanthudu and Bharat Ane Nenu with Mahesh Babu, and Janatha Garage with NTR. All these films became the biggest grosser in the respective heroes’ careers at that time.

However, his last film, Acharya, starring Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan, turned out to be a monumental disaster, significantly impacting Koratala’s reputation. It brought him from the top-tier director to an almost ground-zero position.
Now, Koratala Siva is aiming for a strong comeback with Devara, starring NTR, Janhvi Kapoor, and Saif Ali Khan. This film is a crucial opportunity for him to regain the audience’s trust.
