"Kesari Chapter 2: The Untold Story of Jallianwala Bagh," starring Akshay Kumar, R Madhavan, and Ananya Panday, delves into the aftermath of the tragic Jallianwala Bagh massacre of April 13, 1919. The film focuses on C. Sankaran Nair, a courageous lawyer played by Akshay Kumar, who fights for justice for the victims against the British Raj.

The film has sparked controversy ahead of its release due to recent comments made by the director, Tyagi, regarding a documentary featuring General Dyer's great-granddaughter. Tyagi criticized her attempt to justify the massacre by labeling the unarmed crowd as looters, raising concerns about the film's potential portrayal of the historical event.

Akshay Kumar portrays Sankaran, while Madhavan takes on the role of his opposing lawyer, Neville McKinley, and Ananya Panday plays Dilreet Gill. The film draws its narrative from Raghu Palat and Pushpa Palat's captivating book, "The Case That Shook the Empire," and is a collaborative production by Dharma Productions, Leo Media Collective, and Cape of Good Films.
