5 Interesting aspects to watch out in Ranveer Singh's '83

There are only a handful of movies that have gone to rule audiences’ hearts with their lively description, inch-perfect characterization, and cinematic brilliance. It might be early days to take the call but the newly launched trailer of movie ’83 stands tall on the above-mentioned parameters, giving all the cricket fans a visual treat. The three-and-a-half-minute trailer of India’s iconic 1983 World Cup victory tells a lot more than what people have known so far. Starring Ranveer Singh as legendary Kapil Dev in the movie, the trailer takes fans to some of the classic moments of India’s road to WC victory. The other team members of the 1983 squad have also been brought to life by several actors in the trailer. Talking more around the highly appreciated trailer, let’s take a look at five interesting aspects of it. 5 Interesting elements of Ranveer Singh’s ’83 1. Inch Perfect depiction of Kapil Dev by Ranveer Singh Kapil Dev and Ranveer Singh.

Even if one doesn’t take a very close look at the trailer, it is clear for all to see the level to which the actor has gone to imitate the legendary skipper. Singh exactly speaks in the manner as Dev does, even the actor’s teeth have been shown exactly like the skipper’s. Moreover, a very few might have noticed that Dev has a mole on the right side of his face which often doesn’t show up in pictures but Ranveer has been done that too. Right when the trailer begins and Singh is being heard from inside the washroom, fans relate that the real character has been brought to life. When the actor steps up on the field, he has even tried his best to ace the shots played by the legendary all-rounder. 2. Interesting Characters (Sandeep Patil’s real son, Viiga as K Srikkanth) Sandeep Patil and Chirag Patil.

Chirag can be seen acing father’s role in the trailer and could be seen prominently when players are running on the field towards the end of the trailer. Another interesting character in the movie happens to be India’s opener K Srikkanth which is being played by Tamil actor Viiga. Viiga is marking his Bollywood debut in the movie and didn’t hesitate to give a glimpse of lively and humorous Srikkanth. In one of the sequences, the teams align to meet the Royal Queen of England and Viiga as Srikkanth winks at her. The clip certainly gave fans a great dose of laughter while making them understand the opener’s funny character. 3. Underdogs’ image of Team India 83 Movie. (Photo Source: Instagram) It is known for all that India entered the WC of 1983 as absolute underdogs where no one even thought in their wildest dreams that this side would walk away as the champions and that is clearly shown in the trailer as well. As soon as the trailer begins, India could be seen stumbling against Zimbabwe while already losing against WI and Australia in the past. However, it was Dev’s stunning century in the game that showed India the guiding light and they won the match after being reduced to nothing. While Ranveer as Dev says in the movie that ‘we here to win’, the journalists don’t believe and even mock the team. Even the fans could be seen in desperation (in the trailer) while asking the team to win at least one game. 4. Perfect portrayal of West Indies players (Viv Richards, Clive Lloyd) Sir Viv Richards and 83 movie actor. (Photo Source: Getty Images and YouTube) It is known that West Indies were considered as the ultimate champions back in 1983, who had already won two World Cups (1975 and 1979) under the captaincy of legendary Clive Lloyd. Lloyd used to come on the field with his typical glasses and the same is shown in the trailer when he meets Dev (Ranveer Singh) for the final toss. On the other hand, Viv Richards, who is known as one of the greatest batters produced in the history of cricket, used to have a particular style while walking on the field. He used to have chewing gum in his mouth while he walked for batting and the actor in the trailer brings the same to the fan’s notice. It can be seen that all these minute details have been taker care of very well in the movie. 5. Hardy Sandhu’s perfect depiction by Madan Lal’s bowling Madan Lal and Hardy Sandhu. (Photo Source: Getty Images and YouTube) Punjabi Popstar Hardy Sandhu is being fetched in the ’83 movie to play the role of pacer Madan Lal. Though Sandhu is not resembling Lal much by facial features, he grabs all the attention when he rolls his arm for the first time in the trailer. Lal’s action wasn’t very easy to imitate but Sandhu aced it really well in the movie. It was first seen when he bowls in the nets to opener K Srikkanth and fans couldn’t do much but purely appreciate those skills. For the unversed, Sandhu has been a professional cricketer (pacer) in the early parts of his career and played U19 cricket alongside Cheteshwar Pujara and Shikhar Dhawan. And that clears all air around him on imitating Lal’s role exceptionally. Here’s the trailer of the ’83 movie
