Shahid Kapoor's Deva has passed the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) test and came out with a U/A certificate. The more interesting bit is that the board has chopped off six seconds of a lip-lock scene in the film. With the final changes in place, Deva is likely to stick to its January 31 release in theatres. Here are all the edits made...

Deva lip-lock scene edited

Deva has a lip-lock scene that lasted for seconds, but that too has been edited out. According to Bollywood Hungama, six seconds of the very scene is edited, and that is just the first change suggested by the CBFC.

A foul gesture modified

We all know that when Shahid Kapoor goes unfiltered on the big screen, he is fire. The CBFC has not let this one pass though. There's a foul gesture in Deva which is modified for general viewing.

Foul words replaced

Deva uses a lot of foul words, which also did not sit well with the board. These words are now replaced with milder alternatives. The same is reflected in the subtitles too.

Deva runtime

Rosshan Andrrews' Deva also stars Pooja Hegde, Kubbra Sait, and Pavail Gulati. The film has been granted the U/A certificate with the changes suggested. The movie's runtime now is 2 hours 36 minutes and 59 seconds. Other Shahid Kapoor movies which also released with an almost three-hour runtime include Kabir Singh, Jersey, and Rangoon.

Deva’s ending remains a mystery

It was recently revealed that the makers have shot various endings (at least three) for Shahid Kapoor’s Deva, and nobody from the sets is aware of which ending will actually be used in the film. The three different climaxes reveal three different killers in Deva. But, only Shahid, Rosshan, and some key stakeholders are aware of which climax scene made it to the final cut.
