However, a source close to the project told ETimes, “There is no truth in this rumor about Shahid Kapoor’s salary cut. One can say anything, but the truth is that the film has been postponed for the time being. ” When asked about the OTT rumour, the source said, “Shahid wants the film to release in theatres, so the chances of ‘Jersey’ skipping the theatrical release are slim.”
Recently during an interview with ETimes, Shahid Kapoor was asked if he took inspiration from any specific cricketer for his role in ‘Jersey’ and he shared, “I have watched a lot of cricket because I am a biggie. I am a cricket lover. You can’t be as good as a professional cricketer playing internationally, you can’t get there. The idea was just to bring out the personality of a cricketer in your character. Told the story of ‘Jersey’ with a lot of emotion So people will want to see this film, otherwise they will want to watch a match. The film is an intense drama that gives you an understanding of what can happen inside a player.”
