New Delhi: Music composer Pritam Chakraborty has been roped in for composing music of an upcoming film '83.' This is the first time Pritam will be composing music for Ranveer Singh's film.

Singh, who is essaying the role of Kapil Dev, has been sweating out to get into the character. Last month, the actor shared a video, which showed Ranveer working out in a gym and practising on a cricket pitch in the picturesque town of Dharamshala in Himachal Pradesh.
