Shahid Kapoor To Start Prepping For Shashank Khaitan Directorial After Wrapping Up Jersey?

Shahid Kapoor is currently busy with Gowtam Tinnanuri’s film Jersey that is a remake of the Telugu film of the same name. It was in mid-December 2019 when the makers started to shoot for the film, but some portions are yet to be shot as the shoot had to be halted owing to coronavirus pandemic. Almost after six months, the team would be resuming the shoot with the film’s lead pair, Shahid Kapoor and Mrunal Thakur, in Chandigarh and Dehradun. Once the shooting of Jersey is wrapped up, Shahid will start prepping for Shashank Khaitan’s action film. Jersey: Shahid Kapoor to Head to Chandigarh by September-End to Shoot the Final Schedule?
