Ranveer Singh and Kabir Khan are gearing up for 83, a film that chronicles the journey of the Indian Cricket team from ebb to creating history. We were the ultimate underdogs, emerging triumphant in a game that was declared one-sided by both critics and cricket lovers. The story has all the meat and juice to be both rousing and riveting. 83 opens in cinemas on December 24.
In an interview with Neha Dhupia on her show No Filter Neha, Kabir Khan revealed how he and Ranveer visited Kapil Dev at his residence to prep for the film. Talking about the same, Khan said, "We just took our bag and baggage and landed up in Delhi. I really don`t know, so see, Romiji and Kapil Dev are just the most gracious hosts, I mean, for them they would always say, our house is always open for you, a lot of people say that and I don`t think you`re supposed to take that seriously and `hey! You said your house is open` so Ranveer and I just landed there."
