Bollywood sensations Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, who were present in Dubai for the final leg of promotions for the upcoming sports epic 83, were overjoyed to see glimpses of the film projected onto the iconic Burj Khalifa.
The video is going viral on social media and cricket fans are eagerly waiting for the movie to be released.

Ranveer shared the video on his Instagram as he wrote in the caption, "The champions on the tallest building of the world! @burjkhalifa 83 RELEASING IN CINEMAS ON 24TH DEC, 2021, in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam. Also in 3D. #ThisIs83 (sic)."
While Ranveer rocked glitz with his blingy dress, Deepika went retro with her sartorial choice. The moment of pride left the team emotional and filled their hearts with love. Deepika was even seen shedding a tear as she was overwhelmed watching the trailer unfold on the iconic building.
