Jersey Twitter Reactions
Jersey is directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri and is the Hindi remake of the eponymous Telugu film. It is not just the plot of the film that people have found to be touching, but it is also the portrayal of the father-son relationship in the film. People have all praised the chemistry between Pankaj and Shahid Kapoor, and how emotionally it ‘tugged at their heartstrings.’ One Twitter user has commented that this is Shahid’s ‘career best’ film while another said that it was ‘refreshingly different.’ One of them also said ‘PankajKapur is unforgettable in Jersey. He’s the kind we must protect at all costs!’ and Shahid retweeted this by saying ‘Baap baap hota hai.‘

Playing a role of a sportsman is not easy as it seems to be. @shahidkapoor did it very well in the #JerseyMovie. It's not just a movie but an inspirational drama with a father-son relationship. #JerseyEmotionalExperienceOfTheDecade pic.twitter.com/8YsA1BA6x3

Jersey is a film about giving up & then reclaiming your dreams. It’s going after the impossible despite the odds. And when you have #PankajKapur @shahidkapoor & @mrunalthakur take you on this journey, how can it not be emotional & evocative?? Loved it!#JerseyMovie #ShahidKapoor pic.twitter.com/3uxc2w9oD7

Every time I think @shahidkapoor has delivered his career best, he surprises me and how. #ShahidKapoor is phenomenal in #Jersey
It tugs at your heartstring like no other. You will root for him, you'll feel for him, you will laugh with him and cry along. You're the best. Period— nayandeep rakshit (@NayandipRakshit) April 20, 2022
So proud of my lovely @mrunal0801 her journey has always amazed me and I can't see my Mrunal cry on screen. She has a brilliant connect where you feel her pain and her angst. You love Vidya, you judge her for not understanding Arjun but #MrunalThakur humanises her. #Jersey
