Kapil Dev-The world cup winner !!
Who could forget how Kapil Dev made the Indians proud by winning the first World Cup in 1983? It was hockey -hockey and hockey till then-from where Indians got their identity. A friend who lived in London during that time related the sentiments of Londoners-" Does India play cricket too?" In this respect a North Calcutta musician Saibal Deb produced a cassette "Navaratna" praising Kapil Dev for his achievement ! The said cassette was sent to Mr.Dev who gladfully accepted !
