MUMBAI: Kapil Dev is one of the most loved legendary cricketers! Fans can’t wait to watch Kabir Khan’s sports drama 83 which chronicles India’s first World Cup win under his captaincy in 1983.
And before we get to see the veteran cricketer and wife Romi Dev’s relationship unfold on screen, the legend opened up about his love story on the radio show No Filter Neha. In an open chat with host Neha Dhupia, the cricketer spoke about his indirect and old-fashioned proposal to Romi on spotting an Amul ad.

Kapil Dev shared, “We were travelling in a car and that time an Amul ad was there. Amul had come out with a great ad. So, instead of ‘couple of these’, they said ‘Kapil of these make all the difference’, with my two teeth coming out with a butter. So that ad, it was very funny and I said to my better half, ‘Rom, iska photo le lo (Romi, take it’s picture).’ She said, ‘Kyu? (Why).’ I said, ‘bacho ko dikhaenge (We will show this to our kids).’ So she said, ‘Are you proposing?’ I said, ‘what’s it sound like?’”
Interesting, isn’t it?
83 will see Ranveer Singh and actor wife Deepika Padukone as Kapil and Romi. It will hit theatres in December this year.
