The
film received widespread critical acclaim from critics and audiences alike,
praising the performances of the cast, screenplay, direction and technical
aspects. However, the film was unsuccessful at the Indian box office,
although it became the highest grossing Hindi film of 2021 in overseas.
While
many are familiar with the fact that in the movie 83, Mohinder Amarnath had
played the role of his father but here's some more interesting facts about its
cast.
The
roles of Windies players were played by some Carribbean Cricketers themselves.
- Jacques Taylor played the role of Vivian Richards and he is a domestic cricketer in Windies.
- But things get
interesting from here. Gordon Greenidge’s role was played by his son Carl
Greenidge who's also a cricketer.
- The role of Malcom
Marshall was also played by his son Mali Marshall.
- The role of Joel Garner
was played by Jason Lloyd who is the son of Clive Lloyd.
- And finally, the role
of Larry Gomes was played by none other than Tagenarine Chanderpaul, the
son of Shivanarine Chanderpaul.
The
role of Sandeep Patil was probably played by his son Chirag Patil, who's an actor.
