Jersey Movie Review: Storyline

Arjun, played by Nani, quits cricket at the age of 26 though he scores many centuries and wins matches. He tells his wife Sara, played by Shraddha Srinath, that he wants to do regular job and joins as a manager in FCI. However, he loses this job on wrong charges and he’s struggling to make ends meet though his wife works in a hotel. Set in 1996, the story then narrates how Arjun, now 36-year-old wants to play for Ranji matches again, to fulfil his young son’s wish.

Jersey Movie Review: Star Performances

Undoubtedly Telugu actor Nani has given a stellar performance. The internal conflict as a failed cricketer, the helplessness of a penniless father, and the struggle with all the problems, Nani as Arjun has portrayed them with perfection. Shraddha Srinath as Sara, playing Arjun's wife, has also given competent performance. The actress has pulled off her character very well. Ronit, who played Nani’s son, is a brilliant casting choice. Also, Sathya Raj as Nani’s coach is excellent in the film.

Jersey Movie Review: Technical Excellence

Since music plays an important role in the craft of fimmaking, Anirudh Ravichander did justice to his role. The background score of the film is impressive while enhancing the emotions shown in the film. Cinematography by Shanu Varghese is top-class as he has filmed cricket matches in a realistic way. Speaking of the film's direction, Gowtam Tinnanuri brings in a different flavour of storytelling with Jersey.
