Akshay Kumar's latest film, Kesari Chapter 2, has made a notable debut at the box office, collecting 7.84 crore rupees on its opening day. Released on April 18, 2025, the film is a historical courtroom drama that delves into the aftermath of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre, a pivotal yet underrepresented chapter in Indian history.
Directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, the movie features Akshay Kumar as C. Sankaran Nair, a courageous lawyer who challenges the British Raj to uncover the truth behind the massacre. The cast also includes R. Madhavan as Advocate Neville McKinley and Ananya Panday as Dilreet Gill, both delivering compelling performances that add depth to the narrative.
The film has received positive reviews for its gripping portrayal of historical events and strong performances by the lead actors. While the opening day collection is slightly below expectations compared to Akshay Kumar's previous releases, industry analysts are optimistic about its box office trajectory, citing strong word-of-mouth and the extended holiday weekend as factors that could boost its performance.
Kesari Chapter 2 is produced by Dharma Productions, Leo Media Collective, and Cape of Good Films, and is expected to gain momentum in the coming days, appealing to audiences with its powerful storytelling and historical significance.
