Trade Talk: All Eyes On Karan Johar-Akshay Kumar’s Kesari Part 2

With this season’s two big  action dramas featuring A-listers Salman Khan and Sunny Deol ,underperforming to various  degrees, all eyes are now on the  hardhitting historical Kesari 2, recreating events of the Jallianwala pogrom, releasing on 18 April.

Karan Johar  teams up with Akshay Kumar for what promises  to be the most explosive historical of  the year.  Akshay in one of his most challenging roles since Airlift , plays A Shankaran Nair who famously took on the British empire in a case against the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. Akshay plays a senior and highly respected lawyer while Ananya Pandey(who had a career-changing  2024) plays his protegee. The film is most likely to revive audiences’ interest in biopics. Yes,  it has turned out THAT well.Karan Singh Tyagi of Bandish Bandits directs
