Akshay Kumar Sir wrote on Instagram, “This is a storm, but you must have heard a lot of stories. We were unaware that someone had brought the entire British umpire to court following the genocide in Jallianwala Bagh, thus, this story of Shankaran Nair startled me. I am acting as an Indian as well as an artist in the Kesari Chapter 2 film. It’s more than just a film. It’s a sad memory, an unfinished calculation… And lastly, it’s equitable. Kesari Chapter 2 is now showing in theaters near you.”
