While
83
failed
to
perform
well
at
the
box
office,
it
received
rave
reviews
from
each
and
every
corner
of
the
nation.
From
moviegoers
to
B-town
celebrities
to
cricketers,
everyone
who
watched
Kabir
Khan's
83,
was
in
awe
of
the
film
and
Ranveer
Singh's
brilliant
performance
in
it.
In
her
recent
tete-a-tete
with
Lifestyle
Asia,
when
Deepika
was
asked
if
the
success
of
83
tasted
sweeter,
as
she
is
one
of
the
producers
of
the
film,
here's
what
she
said...
She
said,
"Absolutely!
I
think
it's
the
large-heartedness
of
Kabir
Khan
and
of
the
other
producers
for
having
me
on
board
as
a
creative
producer...You
know
to
bring
my
vision
to
the
film
as
well.
And,
yes,
we've
all
been
overwhelmed
with
the
unanimous
love
that
the
film
has
received,
something
I
don't
think
has
happened
to
any
film
for
many
years
now."
She
further
said,
"I
think
the
last
time
a
film
that
received
this
kind
of
love
was
probably
Lagaan
and
3
Idiots.
So,
to
have
been
a
part
of
it
in
my
own
small
way
definitely
feels
rewarding
and
this
is
what
we
work
for
at
the
end
of
the
day...
The
love
and
the
appreciation
from
the
audience
and
from
our
fans."
While
there's
no
denying
that
83
is
being
lauded
by
everyone,
one
cannot
ignore
its
disappointing
business
report
owing
to
a
surge
in
COVID-19
cases
in
India.
We
feel,
Deepika
should
have
avoided
comparing
83
to
Lagaan
and
3
Idiots,
as
both
the
films
of
Aamir
Khan
not
only
received
praises,
but
also
went
on
to
break
many
box
office
records.
Having
said
that,
it
also
does
not
feel
right
to
compare
one
movie,
which
released
before
pandemic
to
another
movie,
which
released
amid
the
ongoing
pandemic.
