Mumbai, Sep 27 (Cricketnmore) Actor Ranveer Singh says that his upcoming movie on India winning the 1983 World Cup is more than just a great cricket story. The actor has been roped in to play former captain Kapil Dev in the movie, which is to be helmed by Kabir Khan.

"For our generation, cricket has always been the glamorous game but it wasn't actually like that before. When Kabir sir started narrating the story it came as a shock to me. It was surprising to learn the odds against which they had to fight and rise. More than a great cricket story, it is a great human story," Ranveer said here on Wednesday.
