Jersey: Shahid Kapoor feels pre-shoot nervousness

Shahid Kapoor is all set to kickstart the shooting of Jersey. The actor has been prepping up for the role from the past few weeks and has been sharing pictures and videos from the prep on Instagram. Well, recently, Shahid took to Twitter to inform his fans that he will start shooting Jersey from today and he is feeling pre-shoot nervousness.

The actor in multiple tweets wrote, “Thank you all for all the concern and wishes. Last 2 weeks I was out of action but am well and raring to go now. #Jersey shoot starts tomorrow.  As usual pre shoot nervousness. Sleepless and anxious. Every character is a new challenge. And the responsibility of finding truth. Of finding the soul of a protagonist who’s story merits being told. Every character if real will be flawed in some way. Some more than others. The beauty of life and humanity lies in its acceptance of its own imperfection.”

Shahid also went on to reveal that he finds strength in playing weak characters. He tweeted, “And the duality of the human existence is its most challenging aspect and it’s most fascinating contradiction. I find strength in weak characters. And vulnerability in strong ones. That’s the tastiest part of the dish. Hope I can find truth in this new journey. Need your love and best wishes. Thank you for everything. The appreciation and the criticism. I am because of you. Keep it real. And always make it count. Big love.”

Jersey starring Nani and Shraddha Srinath had released earlier this year and was a hit at the box office. The remake will have Mrunal Thakur as the female lead. Gowtham Tinnanuri, who had helmed the original film, is also directing the remake. The movie also stars Shahid’s father Pankaj Kapur in a pivotal role. The film is slated to release in August 2020.
