'Kesari Chapter 2' teaser out now: Akshay Kumar starrer marks powerful revisit to Jallianwala Bagh tragedy

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 24 (ANI): The teaser for Akshay Kumar's starrer 'Kesari Chapter 2: The Untold Story of Jallianwala Bagh' has been unveiled.
The film, directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, revolves around the events that followed the tragic Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919.
The teaser, unveiled on Monday, takes a different approach by beginning with 30 seconds of only sound--no visuals, logos, or title--as it captures the painful cries of victims and grieving families, with voices pleading, "Please stop for God's sake," "The doors are locked," and "Save yourselves Jump into the well."
The teaser also includes a chilling disclaimer: "These visuals are too horrific to display."
Later, the teaser also features a powerful voiceover that says, "Don't forget that you're still a slave to the British Empire."
