India’s reputed film production company Yash Raj Films has been on a release date announcement spree of late. After giving us the release dates for some highly anticipated films like Shah Rukh Khan starrer actioner ‘Pathaan’ (25th January 2023), Ranbir Kapoor’s period action film ‘Shamshera’ (22nd July 2022), and Akshay Kumar starrer historical film ‘Prithviraj’ (3rd June 2022). And now, we have got an update on ‘Jayeshbhai Jordaar’ as well.
Just a few moments back, YRF has announced that Ranveer Singh’s upcoming movie ‘Jayeshbhai Jordaar’ will now release in theatres on 13th May 2022. Previously, the film was scheduled to release in cinemas in October 2020, August 2021, September 2021, and then in February 2022, but was delayed multiple times owing to the pandemic.
The latest release date announcement was accompanied by a humorous video featuring the film’s lead actor Ranveer Singh at his charismatic best.

‘Jayeshbhai Jordaar’ has been written and directed by Divyang Thakkar in his directorial debut and is being touted as a social comedy set in Gujarat. The movie will see Ranveer Singh essaying the titular role of a Gujarati man named Jayesh Deshmukh aka Jayeshbhai Jordaar, who portrays an unlikely hero supporting the cause of women empowerment, in a film that will ostensibly be driven by an entertaining narrative style.
The underlying premise of ‘Jayeshbhai Jordaar’ revolves around a shy man who gathers the courage to challenge society’s patriarchal elements in his hometown. The film’s story was reportedly based on a miracle script by Ranveer Singh himself. The movie also features Shalini Pandey, Boman Irani, Ratna Pathak Shah, and Deeksha Joshi in important roles.
