Mumbai: From playing a lover boy in ‘Jab We Met’ to eccentric characters in ‘Haider,’ ‘Udta Punjab’ and ‘Kabir Singh’, Shahid has proved his versatility as an actor.
He has once again turned on his beast mode in ‘Deva’, which was released in theatres on Friday. Fans are in awe of him and are calling it one of his ‘career-best performances.’
‘Deva’, which features Shahid as a rebellious cop out on a revenge spree, also stars Pooja Hegde as a journalist.
Directed by Rosshan Andrrews’, the film received rave reviews on social media.
A user wrote, “& THE AWARD GOES TO MAD #ShahidKapoor . HE IS ON BEAST MODE Career Best Performance. God!! His Madness In This Movie UNPREDICTABLE, PSYCHO #Deva This Movie Deserve 100cr At The Box Office @shahidkapoor Sir You Deserve This Success Man. Dil Se Dua 🤞MUST WATCH GUYS #DevaReview.”
Another internet user posted, “#Deva, as a movie is good. But, #ShahidKapoor is flamboyant. He raised the bar with sheer presence in such kind of a movie. Performance is top-notch as expected from him. But, he excels here, one of his career best performances ever. Love the intent.”
‘Deva’ is a remake of Rosshan Andrrews’ 2013 Malayalam film ‘Mumbai Police’.
A fan who has seen the original movie shared, “After watching #ShahidKapoor’s #Deva, it’s clear that it’s a remake of #MumbaiPolice. The acting and production quality are much better than the original, but if you’ve seen the original, there’s nothing new for you except the improved performances and production values.”
