Story: Captain of the Capil Dev led the team from India, seen as an underdog, to bring home the title of the first World Cup in the country in 1983.
Khan Khan ’83’ summarizes this team’s journey that teaches a nation to believe and pin hope for his cricket players’ By returning home as a unique set of world champions.
Reviews: The first few minutes into the film, Kabir Khan uses a smartly made passport sequence to introduce an audience to character in the film.
He also uses a dialogue and light conversation to let you be on the fact – Indians do not trust India to bring home the World Cup.
That’s when you realize this film isn’t about winning on the world stage, it’s about respect.
At each stage in the film, Kabir has been assocaping real pictures with the rolls – make one sit and record the fact that he has invested a lot in research and recreation (scenes that look as good as real incidents in the field) the moment defines in the 1983 World Cup travel team India.
You realize that the film is not all dramas or all sports – it makes a clear effort to combine both.
And for a large level, it managed to do it.
Indian love for cricket has many things to do in the way the team in 1983 continued to drop the wind from West Indies, a cricket team that was almost unbearable from that period, during the World Cup finals that year.
At one point during the tournament, the level of expectations of the Indian team is quite low for broadcasters to easily choose matches between giants, West Indies and Australia during the match between India and Zimbabwe.
The last is the match where Indian Skipper Kapil Dev creates history with luwak bats, and it is legendary innings that have not been recorded on the camera.
If you pay to watch this film, the order itself will make the Paisa Vasool trip.
Innings Capil Dev not only saved the day for India, but they got a team of places at the table and a large amount of respect less than every corner until then – cricket control boards at home and Indians living in India and abroad, from the press International and domestic and also from those who have made a sign in the game.
The fact that no one took the intention of the captain to win the World Cup seriously playing at various points in the film that reaffirmed what made the team finally put his best legs.
A little excitement, sadness, noble victory, painful defeat, internal upheaval experienced by every player, their individual’s journey, and the trip becomes a team that can trust himself to defeat the strongest man in a male game, is what dramatis khan khan ’83 ‘ It’s all about.
When you hear Ranveer Singh nailing the speaking style of Kapil Dev, recreating his natraj perfectly on the ground, bowling and body language, you know you are in the midst of sports playing around the cricket.
But when you hear it talk about why he thinks, believe and feel what he does for sports, you hear a man tell you what makes it a famous name in the game.
We all have seen the iconic picture of the capil dev holding the World Cup; This film boils why we tend to be emotionally every time we see it.
On the surface, ’83’ is about the victory of the underdog team.
When you enter deeper, with each actor easily presenting himself as an iconic Cricketer of the 1983 team, you tend to feel that this image has been made with a skilled narrative, supported by a show that is nuanced and internalized, and every department lends technical brilliance for that.
While Ranveer did play the innings captain here, Saqib Saleem, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Ammy Virk, Hardy Sandhu, Jatin Sarna is among those who added Sheen to this film.
Yes, it plays on nationalism rhetoric, far more than necessary.
The spirit of the film itself will push to the point of the point that the rhetoric scene tries to make.
’83’ has a room for some good music that can add a better tempo for narration.
But that said, with this, Kabir Khan did set high benchmarks for himself, once again.
Toi Move Review: 83 – 4/5
