The trailer and promo of Kabir Khan's '83' have proven that Ranveer Singh has worked insanely hard on himself to imbibe the personality of Kapil Dev and he succeeded in doing so as well. However, becoming 'The Haryana Hurricane' wasn't easy for Ranveer and one of the biggest challenge was to master Kapil Dev's iconic bowling action.

Talking about the same, Ranveer recently told Koimoi, "Bowling like Kapil Dev was the most difficult aspect of the character development. He has a very unique bowling action and his bio-mechanics are very unique to him. My body is very different from his so I had to transform my physicality drastically in order to achieve it."

"It took a long time, in fact months to perfect the action. Initially, my body was too heavy because I was coming off the shoot of ‘Simmba’," he added. Ranveer concluded by saying, "There were a few injuries along the way but it was very important for me to crack his action because it is an iconic bowling action and all his admirers will be looking out for whether I did it right or not.”

'83' is going to release theatrically on 24th of December.
