Release of 'Jersey' delayed as allegation of plagiarism raised

Shahid Kapoor starrer 'Jersey' release has now been postponed to April 22. This news came just this morning. Now, ETimes has an exclusive SCOOP on this Shahid Kapoor-Mrunal Thakur movie.

A writer Rajneesh Jaiswal has filed a case against the makers, alleging that the film's story/script is his, Times of India reports.

The matter is to be heard by Justice Chagla in Mumbai High Court, today. We wonder if that is one of the reasons that the film got pushed to next week.

'Jersey' is directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, presented by Allu Arvind and produced by Dil Raju, S. Naga Vamsi and Aman Gill.

In a statement earlier, Gill had said, “As a team, we have put our blood sweat and tears into ‘Jersey’ and would like our beloved film to reach all of you in the widest possible way. Jersey will now release on 22nd April.”
