Gavaskar was a key part of the team. He opened the batting. Talking about playing him, Bhasin said, “When you’re offered a film, you usually spend a day or a week reading the script but 83 was just an emotional decision, it was just instant. Sunil Gavaskar? 83? Ok, I’m on. I wasn’t even born back in 1983 but it’s just a story you have grown up with and pictures you have seen on every sports channel, that you feel like you have actually really lived that moment. And now in a way, I actually have and for me, the only thing that I had at the back of my mind was that I wanted my family to watch this film – and watch it in a theatre and get that experience of rewatching those matches in technicolour. It was incredible when that actually happened. My parents were at the premiere and they were watching it with me… and it was just an emotional moment for everyone.”
