Ranveer Singh and his '83 squad to kickstart the second and final schedule of Kabir Khan's film in Mumbai

It was last week (September 1) when Ranveer Singh and Kabir Khan's team '83 wrapped up the UK schedule of their film. It was a 95 days long schedule and it was wrapped up right on time. Soon after the team flew down to Mumbai and now, looks like the team is all set for yet another power-packed schedule in the city. Now, the team of this Sajid Nadiadwala, Madhu Mantena, Shibasish Sarkar and Vishnu Induri production, are reuniting for the second and final schedule of the film in Mumbai, which kicks off on September 10.

The three-week shoot will go on till the first week of October before the film wraps up. “We will be shooting off and on with the entire team. During this schedule, we will be filming some of the interiors that no longer exist in London and have built sets for the same,” Kabir informed a leading daily. “The cricketing portions were completed in London. This will be the final schedule with the actors after which we will only be shooting what was happening around the country during World Cup.”

Kabir's family is quite excited about this one. His wife and kids had even visited the director on the sets in the UK. “It’s a magical story and anybody who hears it, is excited. Not just Mini and the kids, even my mother and in-laws were in London for some time during the shoot,” he smiled.

What makes '83 even more special is that this film will reunite Ranveer with his wife Deepika Padukone after their blockbuster Padmaavat together. The actress will be playing the role of Kapil Dev's (played by Ranveer) wife Romi Dev in the film. “They are both super actors and marriage doesn’t make any difference to the way they act. It has just given them another level of comfort. Deepika was around our sets for more than just the days when she was shooting, not only because she’s one of our producers but as there is this sense of comfort,” added Kabir, showering praises on his leading man’s seamless transformation into Kapil. “We worked on the look for over a month and decided to keep it minimalistic. One can’t be wearing heavy prosthetics while playing cricket, and for us, it was important that Ranveer plays cricket while in the look.”

The film releases on April 10, 2020.
