U/A: Sports drama
Dir: Gowtam Tinnanuri
Cast: Shahid Kapoor, Mrunal Thakur
Rating: **

This is actor Shahid Kapoor’s first theatrical release since the stunning sleeper success, Kabir Singh (2019).

This, one can surmise from recent back-to-back national bestsellers RRR (2022) and Pushpa (2021) in Telugu — with Hyderabad heroes NTR Jr, Ram Charan, Allu Arjun killing it on centre-stage in the super-hit Hindi dubs as well.

Jersey is Hindi remake of the 2019 Telugu film of the same name, with the director (Gowtam Tinnanuri) retained from the original; as with Sandeep Reddy Vanga for Kabir Singh/Arjun Reddy. Kapoor — the North Indian star brought in, instead of Nani in Telugu — plays a character called Arjun. The first apprehension for an audience (like me) over a movie directly transplanted from mainstream Telugu is if it’ll hit the usual, vertigo-inducing, blockbuster-level high notes.
