We have so many fans who love our jodi and together we want to make the best for them. We are different actors, and we have an amazing equation. So when Ranveer was asked if he and Deepika, the superhit jodi before they got married, will work together or avoid it, he replied, "I would not give any weight age to what happened in the past. She played badminton in many national level championships during her. She took a lot of interest in playing badminton since childhood and wanted to become a badminton player just like her father. Neither are filmmakers keen on casting them. Deepika was born on 5 January 1986 ( age 36 years as of 2022) in Copenhagen, Denmark, and brought up in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. But now they are a real life jodi and most filmi couples avoid acting together. Ranveer and Deepika have earlier together starred in films like Padmaavat, Bajirao Mastani and Ram-Leela.

The filmmakers believe the part where Romi Bhatia left the stadium mid-way assuming that West Indies will win the 1983 World Cup final, and the difficulties she encountered in coming back into the stadium when India was on the verge of winning, can be well emoted by Deepika," said the source. "Her role requires just seven days of shooting. But another round of discussion is set to take place in a few weeks after which it will be confirmed whether or not Deepika will be seen in the film. Sources say the makers approached the actress for the part, and they seem to have got a positive reply from her. Since Ranveer is playing Kapil Dev, and the fact that Ranveer and Deepika are a couple in real life too, the film’s director Kabir Khan believed that Deepika Padukone will be an ideal choice. The role is said to be an impactful cameo surrounded by a lot of drama and emotions. Deepika Padukone will be seen playing the role of then-skipper Kapil Dev’s wife Romi Bhatia. Looks like the film 1983 World Cup is likely to get a big addition to the already ensemble cast! Sources say the filmmakers have approached Deepika Padukone for the role of Romi Bhatia, wife of Kapil Dev (being played by Ranveer Singh).
