‘83 to arrive on Indian Republic Day 2021?

With India recording a considerable rise in COVID-19 cases with each passing day, it seems highly unlikely for things to return to normalcy anytime soon. With the ongoing lockdown delaying the release of several high-profile movies, Bollywood is bracing itself for a monumental loss. The makers, whose films could not release on time due to the Coronavirus pandemic, are unable to decide on new release dates.

Meanwhile, the news is coming in that the much-awaited Hindi film ’83, which was earlier scheduled to release on 10th April, has been pushed to 2021. According to reports, the sports drama will hit theatres on Indian Republic Day on 26th January, 2021.


Rumours were doing the rounds lately that ‘83 was set to release directly on an OTT platform. But Reliance Entertainment had rubbished all rumours of the movie releasing straight on the web.

Director Kabir Khan had also confirmed that though they had been offered a whopping amount for a digital premiere of the film, the makers are ready to wait for a theatrical release. "83 is a film that has been envisioned and made to be experienced on the big screen and we are ready to wait for things to get normal and then release it in cinemas,” Khan had said.

The hugely anticipated film stars Ranveer Singh, Saqib Saleem, Tahir Raj Bhasin and Pankaj Tripathi, among others. Ranveer Singh will see playing the character of former World Cup winning captain Kapil Dev, while Deepika Padukone is essaying the character of Kapil Dev's wife Romi Dev.

Produced by Reliance Entertainment, Phantom Films, Kabir Khan Films Production and Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, ’83 chronicles Indian cricket team’s unprecedented win in the 1983 cricket World cup. It is slated to release in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.

Did you know about EastEnders' Sophie Khan Levy's connection to Bend It Like Beckham's Mrs Bhamra?

Sophie Khan Levy, the actress behind EastEnders’ fiery character Priya Nandra-Hart, has been making waves not just for her on-screen drama but also for her real-life family ties. Fans were recently stunned to learn that Sophie is the daughter of Shaheen Khan, the beloved actress who played Mrs. Bhamra in the iconic 2002 film Bend It Like Beckham. The revelation has sparked a flurry of excitement among viewers, many of whom grew up watching Shaheen on screen and are now seeing her daughter carve her own path in the acting world.

Sophie’s character, Priya, stormed into Walford in 2023, bringing with her a whirlwind of drama. As Ravi’s (Aaron Thiara) ex-girlfriend and the mother of his secret daughter, Avani (Aaliyah James), Priya quickly became a central figure in the Panesar family’s turbulent storylines. From explosive family clashes to her own romantic entanglements, Priya has kept fans hooked. But off-screen, Sophie’s journey is equally compelling.
