This is the first time after her marriage that Deepika will be seen with husband Ranveer on the big screen.
Talking about collaborating with husband Ranveer in 83, Deepika Padukone earlier told Times of India, “The personal equation doesn’t spill over into the workspace. I can’t think of anyone else who could do justice to the role of Kapil Dev, but if there was someone else playing him in the film, and not Ranveer, I would still do my part. This isn’t coming from a personal equation, but from my passion and enthusiasm for the film.”
