Ranveer Singh recently won the Filmfare Award for best actor for his performance in Kabir Khan’s 83. In the film, which is based on India’s win in the 1983 cricket World Cup, Ranveer plays the role of then skipper Kapil Dev.

Ranveer has now won 4 best actor trophies in the last 6 editions of Filmfare.

“The past few years have been wonderful. This is the 4th Filmfare in about 6 years which is pretty awesome. I have had the privilege of working with some of the finest filmmakers in the country. I credit them with this (trophy). This achievement is only possible because they believed in me.”

He added, “This was a very special part and once I am done with my responsibilities here I will call Kapil Dev sir. Just cannot wait to speak to Kapil paaji and connect with him and tell him that this is for him.”

On the work front, Ranveer will be next seen in Rohit Shetty’s Cirkus and Karan Johar’s Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani.
