Atrangii OTT Unveils 'Devangana': A Grand Reimagining of a Timeless Tale

Atrangii OTT, a platform celebrated for its innovative and diverse content, has released its highly anticipated epic romance drama, 'Devangana.' The series is a modern and visually stunning reinterpretation of the classic tale of Devdas, blending passion, drama, and destiny against the breathtaking backdrops of Rajasthan. Featuring Vishal Kotian as Dev, Krissann Barretto as Paro, and the debut of Chahatt Khanna on an OTT platform as the enchanting courtesan Chanda, 'Devangana' promises a cinematic and emotionally rich narrative.

At its core, the series explores the tragic story of Dev (Vishal Kotian), whose childhood love for Paro (Krissann Barretto) is shattered by betrayal and family opposition. As years pass, a broken Dev finds an unlikely solace in Chanda (Chahatt Khanna), a resilient courtesan. Their intertwined destinies form the emotional heart of this grand-scale drama.

For Chahatt Khanna, this project marks a significant milestone. "I have been waiting for a very long time for this moment. My OTT debut, and what better than to play the enigmatic Chanda," she shared. Chahatt drew inspiration from Madhuri Dixit's portrayal of the character, aiming to bring her own blend of emotional depth and resilience to the role. She noted the challenges of preparing for dance sequences and the palpable chemistry between the three leads.

Vishal Kotian described his role as Dev as both a "humbling and exhilarating" experience. He acknowledged the pressure of portraying a character previously brought to life by Bollywood legends but emphasized the deeply human and complex journey of his character. He praised his co-stars, Chahatt and Krissann, for adding "depth and richness to every scene."

Krissann Barretto reflected on the large scale of the production. She was particularly impressed by the "royal sets" and "regal costumes," which made her feel as though she had stepped into a different era. Playing Paro was an emotional challenge for her, and she cherishes the unforgettable experience of bringing the character to life.

Rajesh Agarwal, the Head of Content at Atrangii, highlighted the team's commitment to honoring the grandeur of the original story. "Our team has gone to great lengths, from filming in the historic palaces of Jaipur to designing lavish sets that capture the timeless aura of the tale," he stated. He is confident that the show's visual splendor and emotional depth will strongly resonate with viewers.

With its cinematic scope, majestic visuals, and compelling performances, 'Devangana' is a landmark addition to Atrangii OTT's library of original content. The epic romantic drama is now streaming exclusively on the platform.
