Kabir wanted DP I believe . Qupting Kabir " The film''s director Kabir Khan shared: "I have always thought of Deepika as a phenomenal actress and when I was thinking of casting for Romi Dev''s role, I could only think of her. Romi has a disarmingly charming and positive energy and Deepika has captured that with perfection."
I feel Kabir was right, DP had a luminous presence and she did what was expected.
Also when DP heard the story she agreed to do the part even if its just a cameo because she could relate to the role well because of her mom. Her mum was the pillar of support for her dad Prakash Padukone and took care of the family while he was away playing.
Quoting Deepika "I''ve seen very closely the role a wife plays in the success of her husband''s professional and personal aspirations in my mother and ''83'' for me in many ways is an ode to every woman who puts her husband''s dream before her own,"
