Good Luck Jerry tells the story of a young woman named Jaya Kumari (played by Kapoor), also known as Jerry, who moved to Punjab with her mother and sister from Bihar, after losing her father in a road accident. The family's struggle to make ends meet only worsens when Jerry's mother is diagnosed with cancer. To ensure that her mother gets the medical care that she needs, Jerry takes to trafficking drugs, using her innocent and coy demeanour as a decoy.

Directed by Siddharth Sengupta and produced by Anand L Rai, the film also features Mita Vashisht, Deepak Dobriyal and Sushant Singh in key roles. The movie is an adaptation of the hit Telugu film Kolamaavu Kokila, which came out in 2018 and featured Nayanthara in the lead.

- While another user criticised the film for not doing justice to its source material, writing, "#GoodLuckJerry - Not a Faithful Remake of Kolamaavu kokila. Yogi Babu, Redin, anbu, Motta rajendran. all these characters from original r mokka in this one. So comedy didn't work well. #JhanviKapoor perf ok. Few comedies works here & there. Partly engaging. Not Recommended" For those unaware,  Good Luck Jerry is the official remake of the Tamil film Kolamaavu Kokila (2018).

- Another user said, "I will not compare this film to its original, but proper justice has been in the remake and career best acting by janhvi kapoor. I'm very happy to see how she has done such an upgrade in her acting skills. Very good, Watch it."

- One user went on to compliment Kapoor for picking up such a challenging role, tweeting, "What I like about janhavi is that she chooses challenging roles and those roles which have no glamour but the character's power & impact in the movie. Can't wait to see her in bawal because i know she's gonna make bawal in that movie #JanhviKapoor #GoodLuckJerry."

-According to one viewer, the film only worked in segments, also noting improvement in Kapoor's performance from her previous films. "#GoodLuckJerry has been watched. It worked for me in parts. The first half was entertaining. Second could've been better. But we can see Janhvi has improved. Deepak Dobriyal was the best. Such a funny character. And thank god I have never tried eating momos."
