Class Of ’83 Star Bobby Deol Shares Pic From The First Day Of Shoot

Atul Sabharwal’s new movie Class of ’83 has some surprises. The biggest one is the casting of Bobby Deol as a brooding police officer who creates his own version of the Dirty Dozen but later regrets his actions.

Introduced to the movies as a curly-haired and well-oiled gent and most recently seen goofing around in the reincarnation comedy Housefull 4 (2019), Deol is all seriousness and purpose as Vijay Singh. Vijay is the dean of a police training college in Nashik. Among its cadets, who will go on to fill the ranks of the Maharashtra Police, is a bunch of laggards who think they are too cool for school. At least three of them act like the rowdies they will eventually hunt in the classroom itself – another surprise in the early, promise-filled sections of Class of ’83.

The students commit an act that demands rustication. But Vijay sees potential in these young men. He has been on the hunt for “crazy romantics” who will scalp gangsters through encounters, who will sacrifice the law so that order may be maintained, who will become the “antibodies” that will cure the illness that lies beyond the campus (the movie is heavy on aphoristic dialogue and streetwise philosophising).
