Nandamuri Kalyanram's Devil gets OTT release date

Prime Video on Saturday announced the streaming premiere of the Telugu action-drama, Devil. Directed by Abhishek Nama, and also produced by him under the banner of Abhishek Pictures, the film features Nandamuri Kalyanram and Samyuktha Menon in the lead. The film will stream on the platform on January 14.

Set in the year 1945 in a British Province called Rasapadu, the film follows the story of a British secret agent, Agent Devil (Kalyanram) who is assigned the task of solving a murder in an influential Zamindar’s family. His investigation leads him down a twisted path of mysteries, deceit, betrayal, and love, as the success or failure of his mission could change the course of history. 

The film was theatrically released in India on 29 December 2023 and received mixed reviews from the audience as well as critics.

Our CE review of the film read, "Needless to say, Devil is an espionage entertainer, not an espionage-bait entertainer (like Agent and Spy, which were released earlier this year). The entire film’s conflict rests on a piece of stolen code. The safety of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose lies in the code resting in the right hands. Throughout the film, powers that be wrestle for that code. Seek to encrypt it. Hatch plans over plans on it. There are murders, explosions, backstabbing. Devil’s writing is admirable that way."
