He emphasizes that while the industry may speculate, he owes no explanations to anyone.In a surprising twist, Dev also revealed plans to shift to Mumbai, hinting at potential Bollywood opportunities.
Growing up in Mumbai, Dev feels the pull of the glamour world and is considering purchasing a flat there, as he anticipates spending at least ten days a month in the city for work. He notes that to sell films today, one must be in Mumbai, where most industry activities occur, from choreography to equipment sourcing. His upcoming projects, including the film “Raghu Dakat,” require him to be present in Mumbai for technical work like Dolby Atmos sound mixing. Dev’s commitment to his career is evident, as he acknowledges the need for a base in Mumbai to facilitate his work. Moreover, he has expressed support for Rukmini’s aspirations, revealing that she has been auditioning and meeting industry professionals in Mumbai for some time, and he feels it would be unfair not to encourage her as she seeks to establish herself on a national level.
