Trailer of Akshay Kumar’s New Film ‘Kesari Chapter 2’ Based on the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre Released
Kesari Chapter 2 Trailer Out: After the teaser release, the makers have finally unveiled the trailer of Akshay Kumar’s film Kesari Chapter 2 today, i.e., April 3, 2025. Alongside Akshay Kumar, actors R. Madhavan and Ananya Panday will also be seen in lead roles. The film is based on true events, depicting the brutal Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919. The lead characters in the film are seen playing lawyers.
What’s shown in the trailer?
The trailer of Kesari Chapter 2 presents a gripping portrayal of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. It opens with Akshay Kumar standing in a courtroom, questioning British officer General Dyer. Akshay plays the role of lawyer C.N. Nair. He asks, “How did you warn the crowd to disperse? Did you use tear gas or fire shots in the air?” Dyer denies it. Akshay then challenges him further, “So, you fired directly at the crowd without any warning?” to which Dyer coldly responds, “That wasn’t a crowd; they were terrorists.”
R. Madhavan appears as the opposing lawyer, while Ananya Panday plays a law student from that era. The trailer showcases the horrifying reality of the massacre, leaving viewers shaken. The burning question remains—will Akshay Kumar’s character win the case? That will only be revealed when the film hits the screens.
The trailer receives immense appreciation
Since the release of the Kesari Chapter 2 trailer, audiences have been overwhelmingly impressed. Social media is abuzz with positive reactions. However, the real test lies ahead—will the film live up to the high expectations set by the trailer? Can Akshay Kumar reclaim his box-office dominance with this movie?
