’33 Crore Devta’ - This is misinterpreted fact which is because of wrong translation of Vedic Sanskrit by westerner scholars
As mentioned in Yajur Veda, Atharva Veda and Satapatha-brahmana the term ‘trayastrimsati koti’has been translated as 33 Gods as per them but the Sanskrit word koti has two meaning out of which one is Crore and other is ‘type’.

I personally don't support that there are just 33 devi devata in Hinduism. As counting on fingertips of devi and devata that know could be in 100s.
