About Deva

Deva tells the story of a womaniser and trigger-friendly cop, Dev, who is looking to avenge his dead friend but loses his memories. Hindustan Times’ review of the film reads, “Overall, Deva had so much potential to give us a massy character, who is always on the edge, truly unpredictable. What we get is a predictable story with an in-form Shahid.”
