The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has passed Deva with a U/A certificate. Going by the trailer, the film looks like an intense, gripping story. Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor can be seen returning to the action genre, this time as a fearless cop walking the thin line between justice and rebellion. It also stars Pooja Hegde as a journalist in a pivotal role. The film is directed by Rosshan Andrrews and produced by Zee Studios and Siddharth Roy Kapur.
