Currently, the actor is preparing for his upcoming historical film that recounts an untold tale related to the Jallianwala Bagh massacre.

In a gracious note, Kumar expressed thanks to Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi for acknowledging the remarkable role of Chettur Sankaran Nair in our country’s freedom struggle.

It’s crucial that our nation, particularly our youth, appreciate the brave women and men who fought tirelessly to secure our freedom. Our Kesari Chapter 2 serves as a gentle reminder that we should always be mindful of our freedom and never take it for granted.

April 14th saw PM Modi remarking that Baisakhi not only marks a traditional harvest festival, but also commemorates the 106th anniversary of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. He also brought attention to C. Sankaran Nair, a figure who might be unfamiliar to many. Lately, he’s been a topic of much discussion, Modi pointed out. He was, in fact, a renowned lawyer who held a prominent position within the British government at that time.

As an ardent admirer, I’d rephrase it like this: “I, captivated by his spirit, recount how he could have basked in power and opulence, but instead, he relinquished his position to challenge the British monarchy. Hailing from Kerala, he found himself embroiled in a tragic event in Punjab – the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. Determined to make a difference, he took up the case and sent tremors through the very heart of the British Empire.

Under the guidance of director Karan Singh Tyagi, Kesari Chapter 2 stars Akshay Kumar, Ananya Panday, and R. Madhavan in significant roles. This epic production is financed by Dharma Productions, Leo Media Collective, and Cape of Good Films. The historical drama will hit theaters on April 18, 2025.
