Ranveer Singh’s 83 gets a Gully Boy addition – read exclusive details inside

Kabir Khan’s directorial venture 83 is currently the talk of the town and for obvious reasons. Since we were the first ones to inform about the various entries to the huge ensemble star cast, we thought it was time to give you all one more update. Just today, our sources have told us that actor Vijay Varma has been roped in to play all-rounder Roger Binny in the highly anticipated biopic which stars Ranveer Singh in the lead. While we tried to get a confirmation on the same from Vijay, he chose not to comment on it.

When asked about 83, Vijay simply said, “I cannot comment anything about 83 right now.” But we got our answer, didn’t we? Earlier this week, we had also informed you that actor-filmmaker Addinath Kothare has been cast as the ace batsman Dilip Vengsarkar. And now Vijay Varma, who played Moeen in Zoya Akhtar’s recent release Gully Boy, has joined the cast. Well, if that’s the case then good for him because he is quite talented. As Roger Binny, apart from being an all-rounder, he is remembered for his terrific bowling performance in the 1983 Cricket World Cup.

Since Vijay has impressed everyone with his performance in Gully Boy, watching him transform into Binny’s character will be fun. 83, wherein Ranveer will play the role of Kapil Dev, will soon go on floors. Last month, RS began his net practice and Kabir Khan was spotted on recce tour to the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground, in London, where the iconic victorious match was played. Also, tell us would you like to watch Vijay Varma as Roger Binny in the film 83? Or do you guys want some other actor to play the role? Let us know in the comments section below.
