Karan Johar is looking forward to several intriguing projects slated for release in 2025, including a film featuring Akshay Kumar, Ananya Panday, and R Madhavan. This movie has been provisionally named Kesari Chapter 2. Lately, Karan has disclosed some captivating insights about this historical drama. He described it as one of their top-tier productions.
During an interview with Komal Nahta for Game Changers, Karan Johar was asked which historical event he would choose to create a war film about. In his response, he pointed towards the Jallianwala Bagh incident. Karan revealed that he was working on a true story based on a man named C Sankaran Nair, which is inspired by a book.
Karan stated, “During that period, a man stood up against the English crown as he found Colonel Dyer’s claim of self-defense utterly unacceptable. In the court, this individual argued that what transpired was an act of genocide.
In addition, the filmmaker emphasized that the upcoming movie, starring Akshay Kumar as the main character, was directed by debutant director Karan Tyagi. Excitedly, Karan commented, “I feel compelled to make this clear: This is one of our finest productions, and I’m incredibly proud of it.” He added that he eagerly anticipates the moment when the audience gets to see this movie.
If queried about helming a war film, Karan shared his preference for crafting a heartfelt love story, set against the backdrop of the tragic and tumultuous time of India’s partition.
In the year 2024, the movie about C. Sankaran Nair was formally declared. The announcement stated, “The Untitled Film Reveals the Scandalous Concealment of a Massacre, Triggering India’s Renowned Barrister, C. SANKARAN NAIR, to Engage in an Unprecedented Struggle Against the British Empire.
