Here’s How Ranveer Singh’s ’83 Helped Saqib Saleem To Be A Calmer Person In Real Life

Saqib Saleem has shared the piece of advice offered to him by former cricketer Mohinder Amarnath before he started shooting for 83. In the Kabir Khan directorial, Saqib Saleem plays the all-rounder, who was also known as Jimmy.

Talking about Mohinder Amarnath’s advice, the Saqib revealed, “The most valuable piece of advice which Jimmy sir gave me is to be calm and focus on the game. There was something in the way he said which has stayed with me.”

Saqib added, “I’ll make sure that I inculcate his advice in my day to day life.”

Saqib also revealed that he is usually hyper by nature but has become calmer as a person after essaying Amarnath’s character.

“A character that you play does something to you personally and when I was playing Jimmy, it made me calmer as a human being. Because that is how Jimmy sir is. If I had to get him right, I had to get that zen-like attitude. The calm resilience to play him, that was the difficult part, because I am usually very hyper. So, I had to start meditation just to calm myself down,” he shared.
