Usually, the box office news around a major movie release is binary: Hit or a flop. But in the case of Ranveer Singh’s latest release 83, its success is harder to gauge. In its opening day, Kabir Khan’s sports drama is estimated to have earned Rs 13-14 crore, a little short of projections that had the movie potentially cracking the Rs 20-crore mark. That puts it behind Sooryavanshi, which took in Rs 26.29 crore, and Spider-Man No Way Home, which took Rs 32.67 crore.
As per a Box Office India report, 83 has performed well in metropolitan cities but wasn’t as successful in two-tier cities. In Delhi and Bengaluru, the film has earned almost as much as Sooryavanshi had earned on its first day. However, in Gujarat, the film is trailing Sooryavanshi by a considerable margin.
Ranveer Singh, who essays cricket icon Kapil Dev in the sports drama, is busy collecting stellar reviews for his performance from all corners. From Suniel Shetty to Tahira Kashyap, everyone who watched the film could not stop singing praises for Ranveer’s show in the film. At the film premiere held in the Maximum City recently, former cricketer Sunil Gavaskar saw the film. Gavaskar, who was an important member of the Indian World Cup-winning team in 1983, said in his film review that he was blown away by the retelling of the historic event.
83 tells the story of India’s first Cricket World Cup win in 1983 at Lord’s. Kapil Dev and his band of brothers lifted the cup for the first time that year. 83 also stars Pankaj Tripathi, Boman Irani, Saqib Saleem and Tahir Raj Bhasin, among others.
