’83’ is currently garnering immense love from cricket and Bollywood lovers who are cherishing the Ranveer Singh-starrer. The film showcases the journey of India’s triumph at the 1983 World Cup. It narrates the story of underdogs, who nobody believed in. Finally, however, the Indian team fought against all odds and clinched the title by defeating the mighty West Indies team in 1983.
Released on 24 December, Kabir Khan’s ’83’, starring Ranveer Singh, saw a slight drop in the second week’s collections at the box office. However, it had managed a decent collection at the end of its first week but couldn’t create a storm. The film took advantage of the Christmas holiday, which added considerably to BO. The film that chronicles the Indian cricket team’s enthralling 1983 World Cup victory is estimated to collect Rs 6 crore on its Day 5, states boxofficeindia.com. The total four-day collection stands around Rs 58 crore.
“83 (Hindi) has dropped further on Tuesday with collections set to be around six crore net which will take the film to around 57.50 crore net. The film has an issue with Delhi cinemas shut down tomorrow, and many are closed today itself. It remains to be seen if there is a loss in Delhi city today or not, but elsewhere the film is seeing drops which should not happen in this Xmas week especially as the collections are generally low,” the BO report stated.
However, ’83’ is currently garnering immense love from cricket and Bollywood lovers who are cherishing the Ranveer Singh-starrer. Calling it magnificent, megastar Rajinikanth is the latest to join the list of people who have lavished praise on ’83.’ Rajinikanth took to Twitter and wrote, “#83TheMovie wow what a movie… magnificent!!!
