Initially,
Deepika
Was
Skeptical
About
Not
Playing
The
Central
Character
Bollywood
Hungama
quoted
a
source
as
saying,
"The
film
is
about
the
Indian
cricket
team
led
by
Kapil
Dev
winning
the
1983
World
Cup
in
England
and
Wales.
How
much
of
a
role
Deepika
can
have
as
Kapil
Dev's
wife
in
a
plot
that
is
not
devoted
to
Kapil's
off-field
life?
She
was
in
two
minds,
not
sure
she
wanted
to
play
a
non-central
character."
How
Did
Deepika
Get
Convinced?
The
source
asserts
that
Ranveer
Singh
played
a
major
role
in
convincing
Deepika
to
accept
the
film.
"I
think
Ranveer
almost
convinced
her,
and
then
the
zeros
on
the
cheque
did
the
rest,"
adds
the
source.
How
Much
Deepika
Is
Getting
For
83?
Reportedly,
Deepika
Padukone
has
been
paid
Rs
14
crore
to
be
part
of
this
much-ambitious
film
of
Kabir
Khan.
Even
though
Deepika's
getting
Rs
14
crore
for
a
film,
the
pay
disparity
between
actors
and
actresses
in
the
industry
to
still
too
huge.
Thankfully,
actresses
like
Deepika
taking
a
stand
for
their
talent
and
letting
their
work
give
head
to
head
competition
to
male
actors
of
the
B-town!
Meanwhile,
Deepika's
Also
Gearing
For
Chhapaak
Before
Ranveer
Singh
starrer
83,
Deepika
will
be
seen
in
Meghna
Gulzar's
Chhapaak.
The
film
is
all
set
to
hit
the
theatres
on
January
10,
2020
and
it
also
casts
Vikrant
Massey.
Dippy
Fans
Look
Forward
To
2020
Though,
this
year,
Deepika
will
not
have

all
the
Dippy

will
be
super
elated
to
see
Deepika
on
silver
screen
twice

2020
