Cast

Production

Development

In early-August 2022, it was reported that Rosshan Andrrews visited Shahid Kapoor at his residence and narrated a script which impressed him.[3][4] Later, in November 2022, Rosshan Andrrews through his social media handles, confirmed that he would direct Shahid Kapoor in his upcoming film.[5] Touted to be an action thriller, the film marks the first collaboration between director Rosshan Andrews and Shahid Kapoor, and the first Hindi venture of Rosshan.[6][7]

The film is produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur's Roy Kapur Films and Zee Studios.[8] The company made a public announcement on 25 May 2023, confirming the project.[9] The film's official title Deva was revealed on 24 October 2023, on the occasion of Dussehra.[10][11] Shariq Patel of Zee Studios revealed that he had been in separate discussions with Siddharth and Shahid over the years about different projects. Somehow they didn't materialise and it took this film to come together and this is the first time that the Zee Studios have collaborated with both director and actor.[11] Kapoor reduced his remuneration for the film and was reported to receive ₹25 crore (US$3.0 million) as actor's remuneration.[12]

Pre-production

Pre-production started on 16 November 2022.[13] It took several months for the writing and pre-production.[14] The film is scripted by the duo Bobby–Sanjay, in their ninth collaboration with Rosshan.[15] Sumit Arora and Arshad Syed wrote the Hindi dialogues for the film.[16][17] Later, Rosshan began location scouting for the film and shared a few pictures through his Instagram page.[18][19] Kapoor stated the film is an "edgy action thriller with lots of action and thrill".[20]

Sachet–Parampara would compose the songs, and background score by Jakes Bejoy. Technicians include cinematographer Amit Roy, editor A. Sreekar Prasad, production designer Sandeep Ravade, stunt director Parvez Shaikh, costume designers Malavika Kashikar and Chandani Mehta.[21] Prior to the start of film production, Kapoor attended a special workshop in October 2023, in order to train physically and intensively for his role in the film.[22]

Casting

Shahid Kapoor plays the role of a police officer in the film,[23] and sported a short hairstyle for his character, similar to his look in Haider (2014).[24][25] He said he is playing "a very hard character" in the film.[26] In May 2023, Pooja Hegde was reported to be the lead actress,[27] and her inclusion was confirmed by makers on 13 October 2023, on Hegde's birthday.[28] The makers wanted "a fresh casting" and finalised Hegde, marking her maiden collaboration with both Rosshan and Kapoor.[29]

Kubbra Sait joined the cast in early-November 2023,[30] and would play police officer role.[31] The film marks her second collaboration with Kapoor, after web series Farzi.[2] For her character, she underwent training for three months during the project's pre-production process, and also went through a workshop in Mumbai.[32] In late-November, Pavail Gulati joined the cast,[33] marking his first action film.[34] Gulati felt his role "demands physical and mental dedication".[35] For that he attended a special workshop in January 2024, in order to train physically and intensively for his role in the film.[36] For some challenging scenes involving hand-to-hand combat scenes featuring Gulati, Rosshan initially considered hiring a body double, but said he felt the body double's work was inauthentic and did it himself.[37]
