Shahid Kapoor receives acclaim for his role in Deva, a gripping action thriller directed by Rosshan Andrrews. While audiences praise its intensity and performances, some note similarities to another film.
Deva Twitter review: Shahid Kapoor has won praise for his role in the ‘absolute banger’ action thriller movie, but users have pointed out the similarity its opening scene shares with the Malayalam film Mumbai Police. Rosshan Andrrews directed both of these films.
As the film keeps its audiences hooked with its engaging story and intense performances, several Twitter users (now X) have hailed the film as a “must-watch”.
Shahid Kapoor marks his return to the big screen after almost a year with 'Deva', which was released in theatres on Friday, January 31. He had last appeared in ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’, which starred actress Kriti Sanon.

“Deva Shahid Kapoor's artistry carries a depth that resonates with the soul. Every role he takes on unveils a new dimension of life, as if he’s presenting a philosophy through cinema. Wishing him all the best for his upcoming film!” said a user.
However, a user pointed out: “Unfortunately opening scene of movie is exactly same as Malayalam film Mumbai Police.”
