Real-life couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are set to share the screen space in the upcoming movie '83'. While Singh will play cricket legend Kapil Dev, Deepika will be seen as Dev's wife Romi. When asked about sharing space with her husband once again, after movies like 'Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela' and 'Bajirao Mastani', the actress said both of them had to “remind ourselves that we had worked with each other before”.
“It was good. It was a refreshing change because of the kind of films that we have done before. It was a completely different setting, era, characters, costumes and dialogues. It was refreshing to work with him in this capacity. We were both surprised. We had to remind ourselves that we had worked with each other before because these characters were so different from what we had already done before and we look forward to working with each other in contemporary films a lot more,” she said.
Based on India's historical 1983 Cricket World Cup victory, the movie will also see Deepika as a producer. The actress also has another production in the pipeline, 'Mahabharat' which will be made from Draupadi's point of view.
