Ranveer Singh and Yash Raj Films are coming together once again for what Ranveer calls ‘a miracle script’ penned by debutant writer-director Divyang Thakkar. The film is said to be a humourous entertainer set in Gujarat, and is produced by YRF’s homegrown producer Maneesh Sharma, who also discovered Divyang.
After making an impression with Gully Boy, the actor today has amassed nationwide love, and just like always, he is all set to back a rank new-comer, Divyang, with this film.
Talking about the same, Ranveer said, “I have been immensely fortunate to have collaborated with some of the finest film-makers of our country. I’m glad that today I find myself in a position where I can recognise exceptional talent and wholeheartedly back the vision of a brilliant new writer-director like Divyang. Jayeshbhai Jordaar will be my next release after 83. Jayeshbhai is a film with a big heart. In its concept as well as in its appeal, it encompasses the broadest spectrum of the cinema-loving audience- its a film for everyone! It is, in fact, a ‘miracle script’ that YRF found for me out of nowhere. The sheer brilliance of the writing compelled me to immediately green-light this film. Both humourous and poignant, Jayeshbhai is right up there with the most solid on-paper material I’ve ever come across.”
Sharing his thought, Maneesh said, “For a producer and a filmmaker, the holy grail is a script that is a balance of a relevant message delivered in an entertaining manner. Divyang’s script is a great example of this balance and we are all very excited to have him helm it. What makes this a truly thrilling venture is that I see this as Ranveer and I ‘paying it forward’. Almost a decade ago, we started our journey together when YRF placed their faith in us newcomers and today we collaborate with another new talent to offer the audiences a content-driven mass entertainer.”
YRF's Jayeshbhai Jordaar will go on floors this October.
