Kesari Chapter 2 is based on Raghu and Pushpa Palat’s book The Case That Shook the Empire. In the movie, Akshay portrays C Sankaran Nair, an attorney who defies the British-era law to unearth the truth of the Jallianwala Bagh incident. On April 22, militants murdered 26 civilians in Pahalgam’s Baisaran meadow. One of the worst ever attacks has taken a heavy toll on the tourism industry of the region.
