For some time now, Deepika has been craving to do a lighter role since she has constantly been doing intense characters. In a way, her part in ’83 fits that bill but not entirely because, in essence, the film is a gripping drama about Indian cricket team’s journey towards the 1983 world cup victory.
On this Deepika shares “Honestly speaking, I’ve always enjoyed playing characters that take a lot out of me, emotionally. Even in ’83, there are extreme highs and lows that Romi also goes through in the journey towards Indian cricket team creating history by winning the world cup. But the film also explores lighter moments between Romi and Kapil Dev. So, in that sense, you can say that it has been a lighter part emotionally.”
Deepika recently made it to the ‘Most Admired list’ and there is no doubt in that, as she is admired by all quarters for her journey, choices and presence.
