New Delhi: Jitendra Kumar, who stars in the show Panchayat, is in talks for his lead role in the forthcoming Netflix film ‘Jaadugar’, a humorous sports drama. In the film, he will portray a magician who is in love and is determined for his football team to win the regional football tournament. Today marked the trailer release of a sports comedy-drama ‘Jaadugar’ on Netflix.
The plot revolves around Meenu, a determined small-time magician with little athletic skill who lives in Neemuch, a football-crazed town. He has his heart set on marrying the lady he has always dreamed of, but in order to prove his worth, he first has to win a huge inter-colony football championship.
Additionally, his teammates have their own quirks and their coach (played by Jaaved Jaaferi) tries to encourage the squad for the competition. Initially, the rest of the team focuses on their training but Meenu concentrates on his magic instead. Love and magic collide in this heartwarming sports comedy.
