In a press announcement, Ranveer stated of his character and said that Kapil Dev has a very distinctive bowling movement and the bio-mechanics are really unique to him.  Ranveer Singh stated that his body is significantly different from Kapil Dev’s, therefore he had to radically alter his physique in order to accomplish it. It took a long time, months in fact, to master the move. Originally, the actor’s body was excessively heavy because he had just finished filming Simmba.

Their coach saw that his body was excessively heavy. The coach also remarked that when Ranveer Singh comes for a run-up, it looks like some bulky wrestler is ready to bowl. And he sent the performer away for a month only to adjust his body to be more like Kapil’s athleticism, and after he did that, the actor began to make some progress. Ranveer Singh spent 6 months playing cricket for 4 hours a day and practising physical training for 2 hours a day. He put in a huge amount of hours throughout the four months of preparation and the two to three months of shooting.
