'Kesari Chapter 2' teaser out: Akshay Kumar revisits Jallianwala Bagh

The teaser for Akshay Kumar’s 'Kesari Chapter 2: The Untold Story of Jallianwala Bagh' has been released, offering a gripping preview of the historical drama. Directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, the film delves into the aftermath of the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre.

The teaser takes a bold approach, opening with 30 seconds of haunting audio—cries of victims and desperate pleas—without any visuals, logos, or title. Voices plead, Please stop for God's sake, The doors are locked, and Save yourselves, jump into the well. A chilling disclaimer follows: These visuals are too horrific to display. Later, a powerful voiceover reminds viewers, Don’t forget that you’re still a slave to the British Empire.

The film, starring Akshay Kumar, Ananya Panday, and R Madhavan, is set to release in theatres on April 18, 2025. It follows the journey of India's top barrister, C Sankaran Nair, who challenged British rule to uncover the truth behind the massacre.

Beyond 'Kesari Chapter 2', Akshay Kumar has an exciting lineup. He will star in 'Jolly LLB 3', hitting theatres on September 19, 2025. He is also working on the horror-comedy 'Bhooth Bangla', directed by Priyadarshan, marking their long-awaited reunion. The film, featuring Tabu, Rajpal Yadav, and Mithila Palkar, is produced by Balaji Telefilms and Cape of Good Films, with a theatrical release set for April 2, 2026.
