Ranveer Singh, the dashing actor, is one of the leading stars in Bollywood. The actor was last seen in ‘83’ wherein he played the role of Kapil Dev. The actor did leave a mark with his performance in 83. However, the film failed at the box office. Recently, as per reports in Pink Villa, Ranveer spoke about 83’s box office failure and called it a ‘matter of bad timing’.
Talking to India Today, Ranveer stated, “83 was criticised by the trade for not having made as much money as it was projected to make. I would like to establish that it still made around Rs 200 crore in the middle of the third wave which is not bad at all. That many people went to watch it inspite of the third wave spreading like wildfire across the world. It was just a case of unfortunate timing”. He also recalled how the theatres of the key markets were shut 48 hours before the release of 83.
Although Ranveer admitted that it was a bad time to release the movie, he is happy with the love coming his way because of 83. “Perhaps it wasn’t a profitable film in terms of just money, but I will tell you it is among my most loved films. There is unanimous love for this film,” he added.
