Kapil Dev’s Daughter Turns Assistant Director For Ranveer Singh’s 83

Directed by Kabir Khan, 83 starring Ranveer Singh is all set to hit the screens on April 10, 2020…

Kabir Khan‘s 83 starring Ranveer Singh is one highly awaited film. After all, it follows the cricketing journey of Kapil Dev when he was the newly-appointed captain of the Indian Cricket team and how they defeated West Indies in the final of the World Cup in 1983. It tracks the coming-of-age of not just a cricketing team, but of a young nation in the eyes of the world. Definitely a story that deserves to be told or like how Ranveer once quoted, “83 is an “Incredible Underdog Story”.While Kapil Dev is actively a part of the prep and shoot of the film; guiding Ranveer to perfect his act. Turns out his 23-year old daughter Amiya too has turned assistant director with this film. Sandeep Patil’s son Chirag, who is playing Ranveer’s father in the film, told Mumbai Mirror that though both their fathers played the 1983 World cup together, he met Amiya only recently. “We met for the first time while working on the film. She’s from Delhi, I’m from Mumbai and she’s way younger than me.She’s part of our daily training sessions since she is on the direction team. So, she keeps us updated on any meetings we are supposed to attend. Whenever I’m in Kabir’s office she’s there and is very involved in the process, be it planning the costumes or the schedule”, revealed Chirag. Meanwhile, talking about the schedule, it’s reported that Team 83 will be heading to Dharamshala in the next few days for a bonding and training session after which, they will head to London, Scotland to begin shooting for the film from May 15.
