"Yes, I am trying to make this film since the last three-and-a-half years and I have now got a combination of Ranveer Singh and Kabir Khan. Ranveer Singh is playing Kapil Dev's role and it's a bigger movie now."

Kabir Khan is directing the film and an official announcement on the rest of the cast and crew is expected to be made on September 27, 2017. Unlike biopics on Sachin, Dhoni and Azharuddin, this film is about 1983 world cup and India's journey to victory in it.
