Last
year,
many
big-ticket
Bollywood
films
failed
to
keep
up
with
their
release
dates
owing
to
the
cinema
halls
being
shut
because
of
the
Novel
Coronavirus
pandemic.
One
amongst
them
is
Kabir
Khan's
much-anticipated
sports
drama
'83
which
stars
Ranveer
Singh
as
former
Indian
captain
Kapil
Dev.
With
dip
in
the
COVID-19
cases
in
the
country,
the
government
recently
relaxed
the
lockdown
rules
and
allowed
the
cinema
halls
to
function
at
100
percent
occupancy.
This
has
resulted
in
many
filmmakers
trying
to
finalize
a
release
date
for
their
respective
films
which
couldn't
make
it
to
the
big
screens
last
year.
Amid
this,
the
latest
reports
suggest
that
Ranveer
Singh
starrer
'83
is
likely
to
release
in
theatres
in
June.
A
Bollywood
Hungama
report
quoted
a
source
as
saying,
"Reliance
along
with
the
many
other
producers
of
the
film
have
decided
to
release
the
sports
flick
in
the
month
of
June.
It
makes
sense
as
the
normalcy
would
have
kicked
in
firmly
by
then.
Also,
getting
it
in
theatres
before,
in
April,
is
not
feasible
as
Sooryavanshi
is
releasing
on
April
2.
Also,
the
holy
month
of
Ramzan
is
expected
to
commence
from
Monday
April
12.
So
April
is
completely
ruled
out.
The
month
of
May
will
see
the
release
of
two
big
films
-
Radhe
-
Your
Most
Wanted
Bhai
and
Satyameva
Jayate
2.
Both
the
movies
are
expected
to
release
during
Eid,
on
or
around
May
14.
A
few
films
might
also
release
in
cinemas
in
the
last
two
weeks
of
May.
Hence,
June
seems
like
a
good
period."
Also,
there's
a
strong
buzz
that
'83
will
release
on
June
25,
the
day
the
Indian
cricket
team
won
the
1983
World
Cup.
However,
the
same
source
refuted
these
reports
and
told
the
entertainment
portal,
"There's
no
truth
to
it.
The
makers
are
looking
at
the
whole
month
of
June
as
of
now.
It
might
come
on
June
25
or
it
might
come
earlier."
Helmed
by
Kabir
Khan,
'83
has
a
stellar
ensemble
cast
which
includes
names
like
Ranveer
Singh,
Tahir
Raj
Bhasin,
Harrdy
Sandhu,
Saquib
Salem
and
others.
The
film
also
stars
Deepika
Padukone
in
a
cameo
role.
