Dev.D 2009

A Generation-X take on a classic story, Dev.D moves the original's early-1900s setting to contemporary times, changing a story of tradition, class struggle and true love to one brimming with jealousy, pride, and primal, youthful urges. Affluent Dev (Abhay Deol) debases himself when his planned marriage to childhood sweetheart Paro (Mahie Gill) goes awry, turning instead to pragmatic prostitute Chanda (Kalki Koechlin).
