With this season’s two big action dramas featuring A-listers Salman Khan and Sunny Deol ,underperforming to various degrees, all eyes are now on the hardhitting historical Kesari 2, recreating events of the Jallianwala pogrom, releasing on 18 April. Karan Singh Tyagi of Bandish Bandits directs.
Karan Johar teams up with Akshay Kumar for what promises to be the most explosive historical of the year. Akshay in one of his most challenging roles since Airlift , plays A Shankaran Nair who famously took on the British empire in a case against the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. Akshay plays a senior and highly respected lawyer while Ananya Pandey (who had a career-changing 2024) plays his protegee. Madhavan is featured in a gritty negative role.
The film is most likely to revive audiences’ interest in biopics. Yes, it has turned out THAT well.
