Kesari Chapter 2 Review and Release Live Updates: The much-anticipated sequel, Akshay Kumar’s Kesari Chapter 2, is poised for a promising beginning, with advance ticket sales reporting an impressive Rs 2.06 crore, as per industry analysts Sacnilk. This film, directed by Karan Singh Tyagi and produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions, features a notable cast including Akshay Kumar, R Madhavan, and Ananya Panday. With favorable initial reviews and high expectations, Kesari Chapter 2 is expected to make a significant impact at the box office upon its worldwide release today.
Grounded in reality, Kesari Chapter 2 centers around the brave life of C. Sankaran Nair, a barrister who challenged the might of the British Empire in the aftermath of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919. Akshay Kumar portrays Nair, while R Madhavan takes on the role of the British lawyer Neville McKinley, with Ananya Panday playing Dilreet Gill. The narrative is inspired by the book “The Case That Shook the Empire,” authored by Raghu Palat and Pushpa Palat.
The film is undergoing a broad release, with over 3700 screenings scheduled across India on its opening day. In Maharashtra, the film will be shown in 814 locations, followed by 594 in Gujarat, 413 in Delhi, and 199 in Punjab. Early audience reactions have been overwhelmingly positive, with many viewers praising the performances of Akshay Kumar and R Madhavan. Social media chatter reflects sentiments such as “brilliant,” “gripping,” and “emotionally powerful,” particularly highlighting the courtroom scenes that illustrate Nair’s fight against colonial oppression.
During a special screening held the day prior to the official release, Akshay Kumar made an earnest appeal to the audience. “I kindly request everyone to keep their phones tucked away and absorb every dialogue in this film. It would mean so much to us. If you find yourself checking Instagram during the movie, it would be a disservice to the film,” he remarked.
