The film, however, failed to live up to the hype and tanked at the box office. sub-par storytelling, unnecessary dramatization, and Pushpa (Hindi) storm at the box office were considered as the main factors for the failure of 83.
Now, this sports drama is making its way to the OTT platforms. This Ranveer and Deepika Padukone starrer will release on February 18th. The Hindi version will release on Netflix while other languages will make their digital debut on Hotstar on the same day.
