It's set within a general background idea of Indian independence over British rule, with the local British secret service having a mole in the enemy camp (the INA), and the INA having a mole in the British camp. An innocent woman is murdered because the murderer feared that she would expose his cover. The British sent an Indian agent (codenamed Devil) to overtly investigate the murder, but covertly to penetrate the enemy network by gaining their confidence. Devil is to help capture the INA's leader, Bose. However, his tactics seem at variance with his handlers' commands. His handlers come across as rather sadistic people; Devil seems more honourable. Historically British colonialism was probably a great benefit to India, and India can look back somewhat wistfully after Independence (Nigel Biggar's Colonialism (2023); Peter Hitchen's Short Breaks in Mordor (2018)). But historical facts and figures aside, one can enjoy the themes of a good side on the ground (though the INA) battling against the evil side on the ground (though the British). On whose side is the devil? Has he fallen for a pretty face? There is a heavy body count, and stylised blood flows thick and fast-some deaths are gruesome. A woman is frequently prefixed as Ms in the English text-that semantic attack on marriage only began in the 60s, I think, after the historical setting of the film, so is anachronistic. There is also a 'my god', which some would find cringeworthy. A couple of songs go on and on, cutting down the action and the plot, but perhaps enjoyable to an Indian audience. The action is patently absurd, but let it pass with a sack of salt.

Movie well started with some basic backdrop and hero elevation.. easy to guess hero is a double agent.. total movie is senseless once we knew hero has planned the alternatives already.. he just opened himself to the britishers to fain nothing.. they could also simply guess the Trojan guy who the only person knows the message services.. love story is soo drab.. body language of hero doesn't have the quickness.. direction and editing are like serial making.. these movies having bigger twist in the plot can avoid smaller twists.. no need to have multiple twists and multiple back stories.. it just not only consume the time and also undermine the bigger twist.. the suspense for Samudra is dragged out.. I bet director wrote the story in grand but couldn't deliver it on the screen.. more study, and training required for these kinda movies..

It's a must watch! The movie has a very nice depiction of valour and sacrifices by our freedom fighters. The movie has a lot of twists and it qualifies well to be called as a suspence, thriller and action packed movie. The viewer is entertained all along. Each and every actor of the movie has done justice to their role. Kalyan Ram and Menon has acted superbly! No words to describe their acting. It also depecits how cruel and cunning British were. Not sure why there are some negative reviews for this movie, perhaps, most of those negative reviews are by British boot lickers or so-called (pseuodo)seculars.

I gave three stars for the action sequences, which, though wildly over the top and completely unbelievable, had visceral appeal. Decent acting & a good musical number too. The cinematography and effects were very good. But the plot is nationalist claptrap that bears no resemblance at all to historical events. Who needs the Mahatma when a virtually invulnerable INA Superman can defeat the British Army singlehandedly in pitched battle? Never mind that Bose was allied with Hitler & Imperial Japan, who would have ruled India with an iron hand after the British left. And some of the details are silly. Muzzle loading canons were long gone. British Imperial occupation of India was evil, but this is a perversion of history. It's as if Gandhi never existed.

Like really? I didn't know one man took down the entire British Empire, and he was only second in command. The best part is the hero gets shot 3 times by his girlfriend from about 100 meters away with her eyes closed and hits him all three times and one right in the chest. Than the wounded hero directly goes to a site with about 500 British Soldiers heavily armed and kills every single one of them, oh and also manages to dodge a bullet shot at him by a soldier from 4 feet away. All this with a bullet in his chest. Also another fight scene where he fights 50 cops with guns, with a knife and kills them all. While fighting he also manages to break prisoners who were chained up in less than a second. Pretty intense, if you blink, you would miss that scene. This guy is faster than flash.

Wow! This film took 'inspired by RRR' very seriously, although I am not complaining. DEVIL is a surprisingly superb film that nicely blends patriotic action drama with a scintillating mystery. The first half is all about a murder investigation, and slowly the whole affair unfolds in the second half. The writing is neat, and the direction is good too. The film has some technical issues, and the fight in the climax goes in a 'too much' direction. But despite its flaws, DEVIL is a solid period mystery action about INA. I am so happy to see Kalyan Ram choosing such different projects rather than sticking to those boring mass template films. It's really sad to see this film fail, but I hope he doesn't get disheartened, and chooses similar projects in the future that are different from the usual template affairs. Well done team!

The movie was very exited to watch as a fiction story. But when comes to reality the story it may or may not happen in real life. But don't expect to much and enjoy the movie as a movie lover. Positives_Kalyan and Samyukta Menon Action, Plot, Cinematography, Leads acting. Negative_Music, Lag Scenes, Predictable Scences. No more hip moments. The story is simple to divert the British Police to know Netajis location. Might have executed well in more scenes. But the director department and production values are good enough. All characters did their roles well and given 100% work. Overall good film to watch as a patriotic.

Watched this movie.. Really superb.. Maintained suspense well.. Screenplay is good.. Execution is super. Twists are awesome... Need some knowledge about freedom fighters and code language...linked first plot to second plot well...production values are top notch... Kalyanram acting is good.. His films never disappoint us.. This film is also good one.. But more underrated... I liked this movie very much..jail fight sequence is too good... But climax fight sequence is not believable... Except climax everything is superb... Twists are very good... I liked this movie very much... Why low ratings are given I don't know...
