Akshay Kumar Urges Fans to Not Miss Start of Kesari Chapter 2: “First 10 Minutes Are Crucial”
Key Highlights:
As the countdown begins for the nationwide release of Kesari Chapter 2 on April 18, actor Akshay Kumar is making a heartfelt appeal to fans: don’t miss the beginning. The star emphasized during a special screening in Mumbai that the first 10 minutes of the film are crucial to the storyline and emotional impact of the film.
“When you come to watch this film, don’t miss the beginning. The first 10 minutes are the most important thing,” Akshay told paparazzi at the event.
His remarks are seen as a sign of the film’s emotionally charged and context-rich opening, designed to immediately draw the audience into the courtroom drama that unfolds.
Star-Studded Premiere in Delhi Ahead of Mumbai Screening
Prior to the Mumbai screening, Kesari Chapter 2 held its grand premiere in Delhi on April 15, with several prominent political dignitaries in attendance. The event was graced by:
- Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta
- Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri
- BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj
- Delhi Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa
- Minister Anurag Thakur
Both Akshay Kumar and R. Madhavan—who plays British barrister Neville McKinley—were present to interact with guests and speak about the significance of the film.
Akshay Thanks PM Modi for Acknowledging C. Sankaran Nair
In a media interaction post-screening, Akshay expressed deep gratitude towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi for acknowledging the film’s historical subject, C. Sankaran Nair, whom Akshay portrays in the film.
“I’m very, very grateful and happy that he has seen this and acknowledged it. He knew about it from the beginning, and that’s very kind of him,” he shared.
The film, based on The Case That Shook The Empire by Raghu and Pushpa Palat, portrays the aftermath of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre and Nair’s bold legal confrontation with the British Empire.
A Spiritual Sequel with a Legal Pulse
Unlike Kesari (2019), which centered on the Battle of Saragarhi, Kesari Chapter 2 pivots into the courtroom drama genre, spotlighting India’s judicial resistance against colonialism. Akshay Kumar’s C. Sankaran Nair goes head-to-head with R. Madhavan’s Neville McKinley, a British lawyer defending imperial interests.
The film blends legal intrigue with nationalistic fervor, aiming to both entertain and educate.
Kesari Chapter 2’s Opening Sequence is Not to Be Missed
Akshay Kumar’s message is clear: the first 10 minutes of Kesari Chapter 2 are pivotal. From its emotionally driven opening to the hard-hitting legal showdown that follows, the film is poised to leave a lasting mark on both hearts and minds.
As Kesari Chapter 2 hits theatres this Friday, April 18, fans are advised to arrive early, absorb every moment, and witness history unfold on the big screen—right from the very start.
