Kesari 2 Box Office Collection Day 10: Akshay Kumar's movie Kesari 2 continued to maintain a strong hold at the Indian box office as it enjoyed a good second weekend.

Kesari 2, based on the life of top Indian barrister C Sankaran Nair, who fought against the British Raj to uncover the truth about the Jallianwala Bagh massacre, earned ₹19.35 crore on the second weekend, compared to ₹29.5 crore on the opening weekend.

According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the second weekend saw only an approximately 35% drop from the opening weekend, which is a solid hold.
