India's first victory at the 1983 world cup will be made into a film.

The promising sports feature film will be produced by none other than the founder-president of Celebrity Cricket League, Vishnu Vardhan Induri and directed by ‘Lahore’ fame filmmaker Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan. The film will portray the story of Indian cricket team back in 1983 and how it became pride of the nation by bringing the world cup home.

Revealed a source, "The film's script has been finalised and pre-production work has already begun. They plan to recreate the 1983 moments. The film will be a big project and the makers are leaving no stone unturned to do justice to the story." An international casting agency will also be hired for the film.

The filmmaker now plans to meet the cricketers who played in the 1983 World Cup final in a proposal to add to the film's accuracy. The source added, "The film will be shot in those very stadiums where 1983 World Cup matches were played. The final will be shot at Lord's cricket ground in London. It would be interesting to see on the big screen how Kapil Dev and his men, including Mohinder Amarnath, Krishnamachari Srikkanth and Balwinder Singh Sandhu, managed to win the tournament."
