About Shahid Kapoor's new movie

Last month, Shahid Kapoor completed the film's shooting schedule, which is a Hindi remake of the 2019 Telugu blockbuster of the same name. Kapoor, who plays a Jersey cricketer, had started shooting the film in early 2020, but due to the coronavirus pandemic, the shoot was put on hold in March. The team resumed production in the month of October and shot at various locations in and around Chandigarh and Dehradun. The film Jersey tells the story of a talented but failed cricketer who decides to return to the field in his late 30s, driven by a desire to represent the Indian cricket team and fulfil his son's wish for a jersey as a gift. Gowtam Tinnanauri, who led the original Nani starring in 2019, also directed the Hindi version.
