Actor Pavail Gulati has joined the cast of the Rosshan Andrrews directorial Deva, which stars Shahid Kapoor and Pooja Hegde in the lead roles.

The film, announced earlier this year, is all set to hit theatres on October 11, 2024, on the occasion of Dussehra. Recently, Shahid took to his official Instagram handle to share the first look poster from the film, and also reveal its title and release date.

Billed to be an action-thriller, Deva is about a police officer who, while probing a case, uncovers a web of deceit and betrayal during the process. Rosshan has previously helmed Malayalam films like Salute and Kayamkulam Kochunni.

Talking about getting the opportunity, Pavail said, “I am incredibly excited to embark on this exhilarating journey and absolutely thrilled to collaborate with exceptional talents like Shahid Kapoor and the amazing director Rosshan Andrrews. It’s my first with Roy Kapur Films and Zee Studios, this opportunity not only represents a significant milestone for me but also a challenge that I wholeheartedly welcome and am eager to embrace. It’s going to be a fun ride.”

The film is backed by Zee Studios and Roy Kapur Films. It will go on floors soon
