Key Takeaways
Mumbai, Jan 31 (NationPress) It’s been a whole year since Shahid Kapoor's thrilling drama, 'Deva', made its debut, and in honor of this milestone, actress Kubbra Sait took a moment to reflect on a project that pushed her limits in every way.
Kubbra expressed that the direction by Rosshan Andrrews has profoundly influenced her — not just as an actress but on a personal level.
She utilized social media to share her journey while working on the action-packed film.
Kubbra revealed on the photo-sharing platform, “This film broke me a little. And it built me a lot. It’s been a year since ‘Deva’ released. Almost a full year of shooting. Real locations. Long days. A lot of waiting. A lot of figuring things out. Real exhaustion. Real growth. (sic).”
“I faced challenges on most days during this project,” she acknowledged.
“However, tough situations have a unique way of shaping you. They cultivate resilience, forge deep connections, and compel you into a stronger bond with yourself,” Kubbra elaborated.
She continued, stating that portraying the character Dipti Singh challenged her in unexpected ways.
The 'Sacred Games' actress remarked, “She’s a woman trained not to trust her instinct. And yet, her instinct proves to be correct. Living within that contradiction has left a lasting impression on me.”
As she celebrated the anniversary of 'Deva', Kubbra expressed her gratitude to the entire team, saying, “Happy one year to a journey I won’t forget. This was my first theatrical release of 2025. Growth isn’t always pretty, but it is powerful. Happy Anniversary @roykapurfilms; you made me SOLID! Sending a big kiss and I miss you all.”
Produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur under the banner of Roy Kapur Films, 'Deva' features Shahid Kapoor, Pooja Hegde, and Pavail Gulati in pivotal roles, among others.
This film is an adaptation of Andrrews's own 2013 Malayalam film, 'Mumbai Police'.
The storyline follows a tough cop who undergoes a drastic personality shift after an accident leads to memory loss.
