Jio Hotstar is all set to stream Devika & Danny (web series) from June 6. Directed by B Kishore and produced by Sudhakar Chaganti, its pre-release event was held today in Hyderabad. While Devika is played by Ritu Varma, Danny is played by an actor named Surya Vasistta. Shiva Kandukuri is part of the cast. Subbaraju of Baahubali fame has a major role.

Speaking on the occasion, Pelli Choopulu actress Ritu Varma said that her 6-year wait for a solid web series ended with the series. Saying that getting to do Devika & Danny has been nothing less than a "stroke of good luck", she thanked the writers, director and producer for the opportunity. She described DoP Venkat Dilip as a perfectionist. The series apparently has a message revolving around women and their lives. "This show will instill a sense of hope and confidence," Ritu added.

Actor Surya Vasistta said that it was fun working with Ritu Varma. He added that Siva Kandukuri has delivered a stellar performance. Producer Sudhakar Chaganti, he opined, is a rare personality. The coming-of-age tale is about what women have to undergo in regressive rural societies, he indicated.

Actor Siva Kandukuri suggested that the show steers clear of vulgarity. It is a clean entertainer and drama with commendable technical standards. "Surya’s portrayal of Danny is full of depth and emotion," he added.

Director Kishore echoed the positive sentiments, describing the project as a joyful experience after his previous work, Sreekaram. He expressed confidence that audiences would enjoy the teaser, trailer, and initial episodes. Kishore specifically thanked writer Deepak Raj, and the lead actors for their support. He also recognized cinematographer Venkat Dilip for his visuals, music director Jai Krish, and editor Karthik for their contributions.

Producer Sudhakar Chaganti and director B Kishore both expressed their enthusiasm for their new seven-episode series, Devika & Danny, highlighting it as a blend of entertainment and emotion. He also commended Deepak Raj for the story and dialogues, Venkat Dilip for the cinematography, and the stellar performances of the lead actors.
