Sai Dharam Tej and Deva Katta’s Republic turned out to be a dud at the box office. The film didn’t post even decent numbers at the ticket counters. But the film is said to have fared particularly well on OTT as it premiered on ZEE5 very recently.
Now, it is heard that the sequel of Republic is very much on the cards. The interesting thing is that Sai Dharam Tej won’t be playing the male lead in the film, but instead, Pawan Kalyan will be seen in the central role.
Apparently, Pawan Kalyan is impressed with Deva Katta’s work for Republic and he wants to collaborate with the latter for the sequel of Republic.
Deva Katta penned a socially relevant political thriller subject for Republic and he might be doing the same for the sequel as well. If Pawan Kalyan really is onboard for the sequel, we can expect the film to be based on the contemporary political scenario in Andhra Pradesh for obvious reasons.
But we have to wait and see if this project will actually materialize before drawing any conclusions.
