Jayeshbhai Jordaar is Ranveer's way of thanking his mother, wife, and sister; says, 'Deepika Padukone is the wind beneath my wings'

Ranveer Singh aspires to present a new sort of heroism with Jayeshbhai Jordaar, which is a far cry from the dominant males we see on screen. In Divyang Thakkar's directorial debut, the actor plays an innocent, mild-mannered Gujarati guy who fights for his unborn daughter and takes on his family, which represents the patriarchal culture in which we live.

Jayeshbhai is arguably the most charming hero to ever grace the big screen, and Ranveer believes Jayeshbhai Jordaar is his way of paying tribute to the strong women in his life, including his mother Anju, sister Ritika, and wife Deepika Padukone.

The actor says, “Whatever I am today, I am because of the women in my life, I have been surrounded with very strong feminine forces and energies right from my childhood and throughout my life. I wouldn’t call them my support system; they are literally the center of my universe. They are my very spirit, they are my very source of energy and power. And so, to be a part of a film that is a tribute to the women in my life is a very special thing for me.”

“My mom means everything to me, my sister is like a second mother to me, my wife is the wind beneath my wings and even my team is constituted by mostly women and they are the reason I am able to do what I am able to do. So, more than just about anyone else, I want them to see this film and experience it. I am really happy that I got this opportunity, where I could, through my art, express my gratitude to all the women in my life for making me who I am,” added the Padmaavat (2018) actor.

Jayeshbhai Jordaar will be hitting the screens on 13th May, 2022.
