Kesari Chapter 2¡¯s plot overview
The plot follows lawyer C. Sankaran Nair as he takes on the British Empire in court after the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre. Determined to expose the truth behind the brutal killings, Nair files a case in London, accusing the British of orchestrating a state-backed atrocity. With help from young lawyer Dilreet Gill, he gathers suppressed evidence while facing threats, political pushback, and a biased legal system.
The film builds to a tense courtroom showdown against British official Neville McKinley. Though the verdict doesn't bring justice to the victims, Nair's bold stand forces the world to confront the Empire¡¯s brutality. His legal fight becomes a turning point in India¡¯s freedom movement, proving that even in the face of power, truth can make history.
Kesari Chapter 2¡¯s review
The Times of India rated the movie 3 out of 5, and a part of their review read, ¡°The recreation of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre tugs at your heartstrings, the injustice fuels your anger, and the legal battle keeps you hooked. The tragic Jallianwala Bagh massacre is a well-documented chapter in history. Yet, this deep dive into the lesser-known case that shook the Empire makes for an incredible tale. Its gripping narrative and stellar performances make it a must-watch fare.¡±
