13th April 1919 is a day that witnessed one of the most brutal genocides in the history of mankind at Jallianwala Bagh, Amritsar, Punjab, Britsh India. Thousands of Sikhs were brutally killed by BrigadierGeneral, Reginald Edward Harry Dyer and his troops on that day.Akshay Kumar, the director, Karan Singh Tyagi and the producer, Karan Johar, teamed and made the film, ‘Kesari Chapter 2: The Untold Story of Jallianwala Bagh’, which talked about genocide and its aftermath. Did the makers of the film succeed in their attempt to bring the untold story onto the screen? Let’s figure it out with a detailed analysis.
Kesari Chapter 2 earned ₹7.5 crore on its opening day as it clashed with Jaat at the box office. Despite the buzz around the Akshay Kumar movie and the unexpected controversy Jaat landed into, Sunny Deol’s movie earned a little over ₹4 crore on Friday.
Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh said, “The silver lining is that both films belong to entirely different genres.”
The movie had witnessed a major slump on Monday but managed to stabilise its earnings from Wednesday onwards. Overall, Jaat “delivered healthy returns,” and was “trending on weekdays” which was a big plus.
According to industry tracker, Sunny Deol’s movie, which was released on April 10, minted ₹4.16 crore on Friday, Day 9.
