3 Years of Jersey: A Timeless Tale That Still Hits Home

It’s been three years since Jersey first graced the big screen, and fans are still cheering for it like it’s match day. To celebrate the milestone, Pen Movies took to social media with a heartfelt post: "Three years of Jersey — and it’s still knocking it out of the stadium. A film that bowled us over with emotion and hit every shot straight to the heart!"

 

Released in 2022, Jersey marked the Hindi directorial debut of Gowtam Tinnanuri and was a remake of his critically acclaimed 2019 Telugu original. The film starred Shahid Kapoor in one of his most emotionally resonant roles — a once-celebrated cricketer who makes a powerful return to the game, not for fame or glory, but for his young son’s simple wish: a cricket jersey. Alongside Shahid, Mrunal Thakur and veteran actor Pankaj Kapoor added depth to the film’s emotional fabric.

 

Produced by Geetha Arts, Dil Raju Production, Sithara Entertainments, and Brat Films, Jersey wasn’t a box office juggernaut, but its heartwarming narrative and standout performances won critical acclaim. Fans and cinephiles praised Shahid Kapoor for his soulful portrayal of a broken yet determined father navigating redemption.

 

Over time, Jersey has grown into a quiet cult favorite — a film that may have missed the mark commercially, but scored deeply in the hearts of viewers. Whether it’s the evocative soundtrack, raw performances, or its central theme of love and sacrifice, the movie continues to resonate across all age groups.

 

Three years on, Jersey remains a reminder that some victories aren’t about trophies — they’re about trying one more time when it matters the most.
