Kesari 2

Kesari 2 is helmed by director Karan Singh Tyagi.

It is the spiritual sequel to Akshay Kumar's hit action film Kesari (2019).

The film is based on the book The Case That Shook The Empire by Raghu Palat and Pushpa Palat, centred around C. Sankaran Nair and the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre.

It stars Akshay Kumar as Nair and also features R. Madhavan and Ananya Panday as lawyers Neville McKinley and Dilreet Gill respectively.

Kesari 2 is produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, Leo Media Collective, and Akshay Kumar's Cape Of Good Films.

Kesari 2 box office performance

The film saw a decent start at the domestic box office after minting ₹7.75 crore on its opening day. It went on to pick up pace, clashing with Sunny Deol's Jaat and Emraan Hashmi's Ground Zero. It also somewhat suffered after the release of Ajay Devgn's much-anticipated Raid 2.

Going by the latest updates and industry tracker Sacnilk, Kesari Chapter 2 made a total worldwide collection of approximately ₹145 crore. While its India Net collection was ₹92.63 crore, its India Gross collection was ₹110.47 crore.

The film recently completed 50 days in theatres since its release.

Kesari 2 review

The Live Mint review of Kesari 2 reads, “The film makes the same allegation as the recent series The Waking of a Nation—that Jallianwala Bagh was a premeditated massacre. An investigation of this, and the real facts of Nair’s life, would’ve been enough for a fine, sobering film. Instead, we get a misleading wishful fantasy. “The event speaks to the present times that we live in,” Tyagi told Mid-Day. “It’s a post-truth world where fake news is rampant.” But Kesari 2 is also post-truth.”
