Deva on OTT: Fans eagerly await Shahid Kapoor's cop movie; check expected release date

Deva OTT release date: Shahid Kapoor's action thriller Deva, released on January 31, received praise for its story, cinematography, and powerful performance. However, the positive reviews couldn't help Shahid Kapoor's return to the big screen after almost a year at the box office.

Deva is an adaptation of the 2013 Malayalam film Mumbai Police, starring Prithviraj Sukumaran. However, unlike the original film, the climax of Deva was tweaked to give it a new twist, which the audience didn't appreciate.

However, Shahid Kapoor's fans eagerly await the film's online premiere, which will allow those who missed his big-screen performance to enjoy it from the comfort of their homes.

According to media reports, Shahid Kapoor's Deva will soon stream on Netflix. OTT release dates typically follow an eight-week window from the theatrical release. That means Deva is expected to make its digital debut in April. 

However, there are times when movies are released online before the said winder. For example, Sonu Sood's Fateh was released in theatres on January 10. On March 6, the movie started streaming on JioHotstar.

However, for Deva, Netflix has not officially confirmed the date yet.
