'83 director Kabir Khan was all praises for the actress as visible from her personal website for which he commented, "As we started filming, with every scene that Deepika performed I could see how an actor can truly begin to embody the character she is playing. There’s a certain ease with which Deepika acts – there are no demands, there are no crutches. In fact, on the days that I was shooting with Deepika, I was more of an audience than a director."

The director further added, "I would sit excitedly in front of the monitor and see Romi Dev come alive. Plus, her infectious smile not only lights up the screen but also makes the set come alive with a joyful energy. And in the months that followed, I also saw the greatest quality that any artist can have – courage. Deepika is brave not only in her professional choices but also in the choices she makes about what she stands for. And that bravery, I salute!"
