Shahid Kapoor is currently gearing up for the release of his upcoming sports drama 'Jersey' which is scheduled to release theatrically on 14th of April. Since this is his first release since 2019's 'Kabir Singh', Shahid is a little nervous about it and the fact that it is going to clash with 'KGF:Chapter 2' doesn't help either.

Addressing this issue during a promotional press conference, Shahid said, “If ‘KGF 2’ is a good film, it’ll surely work; if ‘Jersey’ is a good film, it’ll definitely work. There is an audience which wants to watch our film, another wants to watch the other film that’s coming out, and then there is also that audience which simply wants to watch a film. They wait for a holiday to watch a movie. So why should you not be the film that is in the theatres when everyone wants to go and watch a movie."

Talking about how he is handling the pressure of such a clash, Shahid said, "Life goes on by ‘jo bhi hoga dekha jaayega’, I think it is a good strategy. You have to always get up regardless of what happens, and that’s how I’ve lived my life. I’ve been here for a while; I am completing 19 years (in the industry) this year. I don’t feel that old, but I’ve been here for a while.”
