Shahid spoke about Deva

"I found it interesting to play that role" - Shahid Kapoor
Shahid Kapoor shared how Deva became so close to his heart. The actor said, "As an actor, I keep my work to myself. I want everyone to feel it. I am just adding a little filler. I found it interesting to play that role. I have always tried to choose challenging films for my filmography. My second goal is to use my films to reach a wider audience. Sometimes it can be challenging to find both these elements in the same film."
