'Jayeshbhai Jordaar' will be set in Gujarat and has Ranveer playing the role of a Gujarati man. This is the first time that the 'Padmaavat' actor has opted for such a role and a couple of days back his first look from the film was unveiled. Ranveer has lost weight for the role and looked quirky in the first look poster that went viral shortly after it was out.

'Jayeshbhai Jordaar' marks the directorial debut of Divyang Thakkar, who has also written the film. It is produced by Maneesh Sharma and Yash Raj Films.
