Shahid’s Lowest Opener in a Long Time
Shahid Kapoor enjoys a reasonably decent fanbase, given his standout roles in a career spanning two decades. Despite his last outing being a box office hit, Deva failed to pull audiences marking his lowest opener in the recent past. Kapoor's previous film Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, earned Rs 6.7 crore on its opening day, while his 2018 release Batti Gul Meter Chalu also made around Rs 6 core on its opening. In comparison, Deva has failed to match expectations.
