After the success of the film, Deva appeared in Gulaebaghavali, silent film Mercury and Lakshmi in the year 2018.[13][14] In the year 2019, Deva had a line up of sequel films including Charlie Chaplin 2, a sequel to Deva's Charlie Chaplin, and Devi 2.[15][16] Both the films were met with negative reviews and failed commercially.[17][18]
