It is not just perfection that comes to the fore in Devaki, but the opening of new frontiers, inviting the audience to the kingdom of ingenuity. There is not a scintilla of mediocrity in his execution, which is enhanced by Kolkata’s vibrant yet moody aura. A suspense thriller, Devaki is a film about love and loss, told with a lot of sensitivity. A must watch."
