Shahid
Kapoor
and
Mrunal
Thakur-starrer
Jersey
is
doing
well
at
the
box
office.
For
the
unversed,
the
Gowtam
Tinnanuri
directorial
is
the
remake
of
his
Telugu
film
Jersey,
starring
Nani
in
the
lead
role.
Jersey
is
mainly
praised
for
the
actors'
performances.
TV
actress
Geetika
Mehandru,
who
earlier
worked
with
Shahid
Kapoor
in
Kabir
Singh,
got
another
chance
to
work
with
the
actor
in
Jersey.
She
played
the
role
of
Jasleen,
who
writes
a
story
about
Shahid's
character
in
the
film.
Sharing
screen
space
with
Shahid
again
was
indeed
a
special
moment
for
Geetika.
Recently,
in
a
candid
chat
with
Filmibeat,
Geetika
Mehandru
opened
up
about
the
toughest
scene
from
the
film
Jersey.
She
said,
"Our
Gowtam
Tinnanuri
sir
is
so
smooth
at
work
that
I
didn't
feel
like
anything
was
tough
for
me.
I
enjoyed
every
scene.
With
Shahid
and
Gowtam
sir,
each
and
everyone
became
simple."
When
asked
about
the
changing
trend
in
Bollywood,
Geetika
Mehandru
said
that
she
is
very
happy
with
the
change.
The
actress
said,
"I'm
extremely
happy
that
the
audience
accepted
me.
Now,
people
don't
have
that
mindset
where
they
think
that
an
actor
needs
to
be
thin
only.
I'm
seeing
a
lot
of
girls
being
comfortable
in
their
body
type.
I
was
amazed
when
Pankaj
Kapur
sir
said
that
you
are
perfect
for
Jasleen
in
Jersey.
So,
if
you
have
talent,
your
body
weight
doesn't
matter.
If
you
see
the
industry
today,
chubby
girls
are
ruling
it.
What
matters
is
your
confidence
and
talent."
Talking
about
Jersey,
the
film
also
stars
Abhishek
Madrecha,
Saurabh
V
Pandey
and
others
in
key
roles.
The
film
was
released
on
April
22,
2022,
in
theatres.
