When asked if it was the idea of the makers of '83 to have the screening at Lord's, Kabir Khan revealed that the management of Lord's Cricket Ground approached the team of '83 with the idea. The film's final scene was shot on the ground, making it a perfect fit for the screening.

There'll be Indian food available to the patrons," he said.
