BollywoodKabir Khan discussed the making of 83, the selection for the film, and the difficulties of replicating a historical time. He also recounted some amusing anecdotes about the shoot. 83, starring Ranveer Singh, will be released in theatres on December 24
The much-anticipated film 83 will hit theatres on December 24. The film, which commemorates India’s first World Cup victory in 1983, has been patiently awaiting release despite the country and the world experiencing a raging epidemic and two lockdowns. The years have worn away filmmaker Kabir Khan’s nerves, leaving just a desire to see the picture in theatres.
It’s been a passion project that they’ve been cultivating for years. The filmmaker stated that he cannot wait for everybody to see it come to life on screen, featuring Ranveer Singh as Kapil Dev. According to a leading daily, the director discusses the difficulties of completing this massive movie, only to encounter crippling delays. He also discussed how Kapil’s Devils and the other performers in the movie were cast, as well as the filming experience.
It’s an unbelievable thing, and people don’t believe it because they haven’t seen the film yet. Kapil Dev informed them that when 83 is out, they will all get together as a team and watch it. They’ve refused to go to any screenings. That demonstrates how certain they are of their celebrity. Kabir Khan further stated that he is humbled by the faith they have shown in him by sharing their tale and now allowing him to interpret it. They made it his narrative to share and never intruded on his creative space.

Kabir Khan also mentioned that it took them around 18-20 months to complete the cast from the first member to the last. They have to have a physical likeness as well as understand the game and the sport. The talents were required because they will be playing cricket legends. To be honest, they had to pass the pitch test first, followed by the acting audition. Even after that, they were required to serve a two-month probationary period to assess their performance. Following three months of training, they had to say no to a few boys. The filmmaker said that they had crushed hearts in the process of doing what was best for the picture. It was a lengthy casting procedure.
