One Year of Deva: Kubbra Sait Looks Back on a Life-Changing JourneyMumbai: As Deva completes one year since its release, actor Kubbra Sait is pausing to reflect with gratitude and pride. The film, she says, pushed her to her emotional and physical limits and transformed her in ways that will stay with her forever.
“This Film Broke Me and Built Me”
To mark the anniversary, Kubbra shared BTS photos along with a heartfelt note. She revealed that Deva was one of the most demanding projects of her career. The film took nearly a year to shoot. During that time, long waits, real locations, and constant exhaustion became routine.
“This film broke me a little and built me a lot,” she wrote. While most days were difficult, those challenges ultimately made her stronger and more resilient.
A Year of Hard Work, Exhaustion, and Growth
Moreover, Kubbra admitted that Deva tested her patience and endurance at every step. However, the struggle also brought unexpected rewards. The tough days strengthened the bond between the cast and crew. At the same time, they pushed her to confront her own limits.
According to the actor, experiences like these leave a lasting impact that goes far beyond the screen.
Dipti Singh: A Role That Changed Everything
Meanwhile, portraying Dipti Singh became a major turning point in her journey. The character is a woman conditioned to doubt her instincts, even when they are right. As a result, Kubbra carried this emotional contradiction with her long after filming wrapped.
“Living with that contradiction pushed me in ways I didn’t expect,” she shared. The role reshaped her emotional outlook and helped her grow as an actor.
A Major Personal and Professional Milestone
As Deva completes a year, the film holds deep personal meaning for Kubbra. Notably, it was her first theatrical release of 2025. Therefore, it stands as more than just a career milestone—it represents a phase of intense personal growth.
Reflecting on the journey, she said, “Growth isn’t always pretty, but it is powerful.”
Gratitude to the Team Behind Deva
Finally, Kubbra expressed her heartfelt thanks to Roy Kapur Films and the entire team behind Deva. She credited them for an experience that left her stronger, more grounded, and deeply changed.
“Happy one year to a journey I’ll never forget. You made me strong,” she wrote, signing off with love for the team she continues to miss.
One year on, Deva remains more than just a film for Kubbra Sait. It stands as a story of transformation, resilience, and hard-earned strength.
