Remember the moment when Kapil Dev held the World Cup for India? An image of Ranveer Singh recreating the moment has been making the rounds of the internet for quite some time. To be honest, it is rather difficult to spot any difference between Ranveer and Kapil Dev in the moments.
The image first made the rounds when a photo of Ranveer Singh, Kabir Khan and Mahesh Bhupati was unveiled. The trio announced the release of '83' merchandise. In the image, Ranveer is seen holding what looks like a laptop cover, in which he recreates Kapil Dev holding world cup moment.
Sharing the photo, the official page of '83 The Film' tweeted, "Three men driven by passion. One brand driven by the desire to be the best. Introducing #83Believe - the official merchandising line of 83."
Here's their post:
Soon after fans pointed out the obvious - about how identical Ranveer and Kapil Dev look while holding the cup. Although, of course, the people around them are different, Ranveer has nailed looking like Kapil Dev.
