Shahid Kapoor starrer Jersey remake to start rolling on THIS date

Jersey remake starring Shahid Kapoor is one of the most awaited films of 2020. The movie has been in the news from the day it has been released. From Shahid Kapoor practicing cricket to Mrunal Thakur being roped in for the film, Jersey has surely created a good buzz.

Now, it has been revealed that the shooting of the film will kickstart on 2nd December 2019. A source told a tabloid, “After prepping for almost two months on turf in suburban Mumbai, Shahid will start shooting from December 2. The month-long schedule stretches right up to December 30. After that, the team will take a break for around four-five days for the New Year before regrouping in Chandigarh for the second schedule.”


“The entire film is set in and around Chandigarh during the mid-’90s with the film kicking off in one of the cricket stadiums in the city. The Jersey team will be moving in and out of Chandigarh a lot in the coming months. They will shoot at real locations, including a beautiful row house in the heart of the city which will be shown as Shahid’s house,” the source added.

Jersey starring Nani and Shraddha Srinath released earlier this year and became a hit at the box office. The remake is being directed by Gowtham Tinnanuri who had also helmed the original film.

This will be Shahid’s second South remake in a row. This year, he starred in Kabir Singh, a remake of Telugu movie Arjun Reddy, which went on to become a blockbuster at the box office. It will be interesting to see what response the remake of Jersey will get.

A few days ago, the actor had posted a video from his training session where he had hit a six. Shahid is surely giving his 100% to the film.

Woking councillors challenge police facial recognition cameras over privacy concerns

Highlights

  • Facial recognition vans deployed in Surrey and Sussex on November (26) spark privacy debate.
  • Councillors cite early trial error rates of 81 per cent, with severe inaccuracies.
  • Surrey Police defend technology, saying two arrests already made and no statistical bias in current system.
A cross-party group of Woking councillors has written to Surrey Police demanding the suspension of facial recognition cameras deployed in the town, citing concerns over privacy rights and potential bias against ethnic minority communities.

Vans equipped with facial recognition technology were rolled out on the streets of Surrey and Sussex on 26 November. However, independent, Labour and Liberal Democrat councillors on Woking Borough Council are calling for the scheme to be halted.

The vans are fitted with cameras that feed into specialist software designed to catch criminals, suspects and those wanted on recall to prison. Police have stated that images of people not on the watchlist will be instantly deleted from the system, minimising "impact on their human rights".
