Ghosh, known for directing thrillers like Vidya Balan-starrer Kahaani and Taapsee Pannu’s Badla, said he is excited to adapt the acclaimed Keigo Higashino novel for the film.

“Devotion is probably the best love story I’ve ever read and to get a chance to adapt it into a film is such an honour. Plus, I get a chance to work with Kareena, Jaideep and Vijay! What more can one ask for,” the director said in a statement.

Kareena, who was last seen on the big screen in 2020 movie Angrezi Medium, called the project the beginning of an “electrifying” journey. “It’s one that has all the right ingredients… a great story, a visionary director and a super talented cast and crew. I’m really looking forward to working with Sujoy, Jaideep, and Vijay. “It’s the beginning of an electrifying journey and I can’t wait for audiences worldwide to see this global bestseller book come to life,” the 41-year-old actor said.

The film is produced by 12th Street Entertainment, Northern Lights Films in association with Boundscript and Kross Pictures.

Ghosh will serve as a producer along with Jay Shewakramani, Akshai Puri, Ghosh and Thomas Kim.
