Mention cricket to us and our curiosity level reaches a new high. Since the announcement of a film being on the 1983 World Cup win by our Indian Cricket Team was made, people have been waiting to know updates about the film. Till now, all we know is that the Kabir Khan will be directing the film and Ranveer Singh will be playing the role of Kapil Dev. We are sure all of you know it but still, we need to mention that Kapil Dev was the captain of the Indian Cricket Team then.

Everyday, we are waiting for a new announcement to be made regarding the other players of the Indian Cricket Team and we have some update here, people! If a report in Deccan Chronicle is to go by, south star Allu Arjun will make his Bollywood debut with ’83’.

He will join Ranveer Singh in the film and has been cast as the star batsman Krishnamachari Srikkanth in ’83’. Though no official announcement has been made, we think he will fit the role.

What are your thoughts on it? Do let us know!

There were also reports which stated that Nawazuddin Siddiqui was approached for Ranveer’s coach’s role in the film. There was no confirmation on this either.

Talking about the India’s win, the team defeated West Indies in the finals under Kapil Dev’s captaincy.

At the launch of the film, Ranveer had said, “I was born at the time when cricket was big. When Kabir Sahab (director Kabir Khan) had come to me and said that there will be a film on 83, I was like finally. And when he was narrating it to me, I was like woooh. It is not a story just about cricket but a human story.”

Produced by Phantom Films, Reliance Entertainment and Kabir Khan Films, ’83’ will release on April 10, 2020.
