The three-minute trailer sets up a powerful narrative. Akshay Kumar steps into the role of C Sankaran Nair, a lawyer who refuses to stay silent about the horrors of the 1919 massacre.

About The Film
Directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, Kesari Chapter 2 is more than a sequel. It brings to life a legal battle that rattled the British establishment. Inspired by The Case That Shook The Empire by Raghu Palat and Pushpa Palat, the film sheds light on a fight that many don’t know about. Co-produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions, it highlights the courage of those who dared to challenge colonial rule.
This film follows Kesari (2019), which tells the story of the Battle of Saragarhi. While that film focused on a battlefield fight, Kesari Chapter 2 shifts to a different kind of war – a legal one with lasting historical impact. The film is set to release on April 18, 2025.
