Saif Ali Khan's elder sister, Saba Khan, is all praise for Ranveer Singh's film 83. In her Instagram story, she mentioned that the film reminded her of her father, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi.
Saif Ali Khan's elder sister, Saba Khan, recently watched Kabir Khan's film, 83, and she can't stop heaping praise on the film. The movie, which was based on an Indian cricket team's 1983 World Cup win, earned critical acclaim but it did not fare extremely well at the box office. Despite that, 83 was loved by the audience and Saba Khan. She penned an appreciation note for the team of 83.
Saba Khan took to her official Instagram handle and shared an appreciation note for team 83. She started the note by mentioning she loved watching the film.
"I loved this movie! I agree, the pandemic may have affected its performance in theatres and perhaps fans preferred other movies. #LiveAndLetLive. This reminded me of Abba, and us watching matches together. Kapil, played by @RanveerSingh, was brilliant. Each player...nailed their respective parts. @DeepikaPadukone as Romi...You too! @KabirKhanK you are a genius. Thank you for 83. (sic)," wrote Saba.

For the unaware, Saba Khan's dad, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi aka Tiger Pataudi, is regarded as one of the best Indian cricket team captains. He played for the Indian team for a period of 14 years. Unfortunately, he passed away due to respiratory failure on September 22, 2011.
Coming back to Kabir Khan's film 83, it also featured Hardy Sandhu, Dhairya Karwa, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Saqib Saleem and others in pivotal roles. The film was recently shown on TV and it is now available for streaming on Disney+Hotstar and Netflix.
As far as Saba Khan is concerned, she keeps sharing adorable throwback photos of her family members. Her Instagram page is almost like a treasure box of the Pataudi family's precious memories.
