Exciting reports coming in early on a Monday morning! It is said that Bollywood's handsome hunk Ranveer Singh is all set to play a cricketer in his next film, a Kabir Khan directorial. Kabir Khan, who is known for directing Salman Khan's Bhajrangi Bhaijaan, Ek Tha Tiger and Tubelight, is now all set to make a cricket-based biography film.

Which cricketer is Ranveer playing in the movie? It is none other than the 1983 World cup winning captain, Kapil Dev. Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan, the National award-winning director, will be writing this film which is based on India's smashing world-cup victory in 1983. Initially, it was rumored that Arjun Kapoor would be doing this role, but now his off-screen best buddy Ranveer has grabbed the role.

We can't wait to see the film, and we wish the team all the very best!
