Mumbai: After the stupendous success of Bajirao Mastani and Padmavaat, newly-wed couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh has reportedly signed another film together.
Sources say the filmmakers of Kapil Dev biopic ‘83’ have approached Deepika Padukone for the role of Romi Bhatia, wife of Kapil Dev (being played by Ranveer Singh).
The role is said to be an impactful cameo surrounded by a lot of drama and emotions. 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.
Sources say the makers approached the actress for the part, and they seem to have got a positive reply from her. 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.
Ranveer and Deepika have earlier together starred in films like Padmaavat, Bajirao Mastani and Ram-Leela. But now they are a real life jodi and most filmi couples avoid acting together. Neither are filmmakers keen on casting them.
