In Pics: Ranveer Singh strikes a perfect batting pose for Kabir Khan's 83

That is exactly what Ranveer captioned this photo on his Instagram tagging, “#83 #kapildev @83thefilm #balwindersinghsandhu @kabirkhankk” too. Kapil Dev was a bowler and it looks like Ranveer wants to target the weaker area before really getting into real action.

One can understand that with Ranveer, stardom automatically follows. Fans want to click selfies with this man, who was once underestimated as just another outsider who knows some influential people in the Hindi film industry.

Ranveer is still following his unique fashion sense, donning a blue shirt, black jacket and white cap. The actor recently was remembered since Taimur Ali Khan who is back in Mumbai, donned an attire similar to his.

Kabir Khan, who is most remembered for giving Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif’s blockbuster Ek Tha Tiger and films like New York, has now ventured into portraying a real-life story in the form of biopic-like. Both Ek Tha Tiger and New York too were given the treatment like a real-life story.

Ranveer’s smile speaks volumes of how the practice went. His fans and followers are well-aware of his method. Ranveer invests in his characters in a way that he gets absorbed in them, and he seems to have done the same with Kapil Dev.

It is quite unusual for a director and an actor to be friends, but Kabir Khan has often managed to do that. He became good friends with both Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif and has often been invited to their gatherings. Kabir now seems to be developing a similar bond with Ranveer.

Ranveer recollected his meeting with Sachin Tendulkar in an interview saying, “I went to Lord’s to watch a Test match. It rained all day and there was not a single ball bowled. In the box, Sachin Tendulkar happened to come. I was lucky enough to get some time with him. I was telling him I am doing this movie and I am playing Kapil Dev. I told him I am going to do all the homework and I am going to get the look and accent everything, but I think the most difficult part would be the bowling. And he was like – oh, you are going to do the bowling yourself? He also thinks it’s going to be tough.”
