But what made Prabhu Deva and Tamannaah sign the sequel to the film? A source close to the film said ”Tamannaah and Prabu Deva were overwhelmed with the response they received for Devi. When director A L Vijay approached them with a new and fresh script, for the film they immediately gave their nod.”. The source went on to say ”Mauritius is an amazing place to shoot the film as it is located by the beach side, but we are planning to complete shoot in 40 days or so, for which we shoot for 12 hours a day. It’s hectic, but fun at the same time”.
Devi also starred actor Sonu Sood, and was released as Tutak Tutak Tutiya in Hindi. Devi 2 will be released in Tamil and Telugu.
