Scheduled to release on February 14, which also happens to be Valentine's Day, the makers of Dev released the first trailer.

Earlier speaking to Firstpost, the director had this to say about why he is making Dev, "Feel-good films were made by several legendary Tamil filmmakers like Balu Mahendra and Mani Ratnam. They are my inspirations to pen a story like Dev. Basically, I’m a traveller and in fact, I came to films because this profession would help me to visit many unexplored places. Even while writing the story of Dev, I visited similar locations where I shot later for the film. For example, if there is a scene placed in the backdrop of snow-clad mountain, I visited a similar place and penned the script. But what was difficult in executing a film travelling in various locations is people management. Thankfully, my production team pulled it off with a great ease."
