Mrunal Thakur will star alongside Shahid Kapoor in the remake of Telugu hit, "Jersey".
The Hindi version will be directed by Gowtam Tinnanauri, who also helmed the 2019 Telugu original, starring Nani in lead role.

Mrunal's character has been described as an "anchor to Shahid's, who goes on an emotional journey against all odds to play cricket for the country in his mid 30's, when it's time for most people to retire from competitive sports".
