Luv Films, the well-known production house behind several hit Bollywood films, is making its debut in Marathi cinema with Devmanus—a fresh and culturally rich take on their 2022 critically acclaimed film Vadh. Instead of simply remaking Vadh in Marathi, the team has reshaped the story to fit the traditions, emotions, and cultural identity of Maharashtra. The result is a film that feels new, yet deeply rooted in the region it represents.
Directed by Tejas Prabha Vijay Deoskar, Devmanus features a powerful cast including veteran actors Mahesh Manjrekar, Renuka Shahane, and Subodh Bhave. These respected names in Marathi cinema are expected to bring emotional depth and authenticity to the film.
Since the release of its impactful teaser and the soulful song Panduranga, Devmanus has caught the attention of audiences across the state. The film’s visuals, music, and tone suggest a moving story that blends strong emotions with cultural richness. The teaser has already created buzz on social media, sparking curiosity about how this adaptation will unfold on the big screen.
This film marks the first Marathi project for Luv Ranjan and Ankur Garg, the founders of Luv Films. Known for creating emotionally powerful stories in Hindi cinema, they are now bringing their storytelling expertise to Marathi audiences. Their goal is to make Devmanus more than just an adaptation—it’s a tribute to Maharashtra’s unique cultural heritage.
Screenwriter Neha Shitole shared how the team worked hard to make the story feel local and personal. “We didn’t want to just translate Vadh into Marathi,” she said. “We wanted to tell a story that feels like it belongs in Maharashtra. We included elements like the spiritual journey of a Warkari, the beauty of traditional Paithani weaving, and the passion of a Lavani dance. These aren’t just decorative touches—they are part of the story itself.”
Director Tejas Prabha Vijay Deoskar added that every detail was carefully planned, from the costumes to the character behaviors. “We wanted viewers to feel like this story was made for them, not borrowed from somewhere else,” he explained.
Thanks to the support of Luv Films, the movie carries the same emotional strength as Vadh but speaks in a new voice—one that’s proudly Maharashtrian. With a mix of gripping drama, strong performances, and a rich cultural backdrop, Devmanus promises to be a unique cinematic experience.
Slated for release in theatres on April 25, 2025, Devmanus is more than just a film—it’s a celebration of Maharashtra’s traditions and spirit. The movie is expected to leave a strong emotional impact while entertaining audiences with a story that’s both familiar and new.
Whether you’re a fan of Marathi cinema or just love powerful storytelling, Devmanus is a film to look out for. With its heart rooted in Maharashtra and the vision of an experienced team behind it, the movie aims to touch hearts and start conversations.
