83 Director Kabir Khan Opens Up On Sequel Idea With India’s 2011 World Cup Win: “It’s A Separate Story In Itself”

Bollywood director Kabir Khan has delivered multiple hits in the past with compelling storylines and impressive executions. As he gears up for the release of his next sports drama, 83, fans have been wondering if he will make a sequel to it in the future. The director has been very clear about his take on sequels from the very beginning as he believes that it is not always the best idea.

For the unversed, 83 is an upcoming Ranveer Singh film which is based on the Indian Cricket team’s World Cup win. The movie highlights how West Indies was the defending champion that year and how the Indian team dethroned them with sheer hard work and dedication. The trailer of the movie was released a few days back and it has already been creating a lot of hype amongst the audience.

Even before watching the first part which hits the theatres on December 24, 2021, the viewers have been wondering if there will be a sequel to the film. There have been rampant Twitter discussions on the possibility of there being a second part that could be based on India’s 2011 world cup win. However, director Kabir Khan does not seem like a fan of the idea and he believes such a movie should be independent instead of being a part of a franchise.
