In August, the Uttarakhand government had relaxed norms for shooting films in the state by removing the upper limit on the number of crew members for outdoor shoots and raising the limit for indoor shoots. Shahid, who plays a cricketer in Jersey, started filming the movie in the hill state last month. The film chronicles the story of a talented but failed cricketer, who decides to return to the field in his late 30s driven by the desire to represent the Indian cricket team and fulfil his son’s wish for a jersey as a gift. Gowtam Tinnanauri, who helmed the original 2019 film starring Nani in the lead, is directing the Hindi version. Jersey, also featuring veteran actor Pankaj Kapur, is being presented by Allu Aravind, and produced by Aman Gill and Dil Raju. Shahid has previously shot for Batti Gul Meter Chalu and Kabir Singh in Uttarakhand.
