The upcoming movie will focus on how the Indian cricket team under the captaincy of Kapil Dev defeated West Indies to lift the 1983 World Cup. It will showcase how a newbie captain led a young team to a glorious victory.

With Ranveer Singh and Kabir Khan on board, we expect the film to be one hell of an affair.
