Kapil Dev’s Daughter, Amiya Turns Assistant Director For Ranveer Singh’s 83
Kabir Khan's upcoming film 83 starring Ranveer Singh is one highly anticipated project. It follows the cricketing journey of Kapil Dev when he was appointed as captain of the Indian Cricket. The film is based on how the team defeated West Indies in the final of the World Cup in 1983. This is a story that deserves to be told. Ranveer once rightly quoted, "83 is an incredible underdog story."

While Kapil Dev is gearing up for the prep of the film; guiding Ranveer to master the act. His 23-year old daughter, Amiya too has turned assistant director with this film. Sandeep Patil’s son Chirag, who plays Ranveer's father in the film, met Amiya recently and told Mumbai Mirror, “We met for the first time while working on the film. She’s from Delhi, I’m from Mumbai and she’s way younger than me. She’s part of our daily training sessions since she is on the direction team. So, she keeps us updated on any meetings we are supposed to attend. Whenever I’m in Kabir’s office she’s there and is very involved in the process, be it planning the costumes or the schedule."
