Mumbai, April 18 (NationPress) Karan Singh Tyagi’s directorial 'Kesari 2' has made a significant impact on audiences, who are lauding the exceptional performances of its impressive cast, which includes Akshay Kumar, Ananya Panday, and R. Madhavan.
The film explores the historical importance of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre and has drawn viewers in not only with its compelling narrative but also with the outstanding performances of its cast. Viewers particularly noted that Ananya Panday, who is frequently criticized for her acting abilities, delivered an exceptional performance in 'Kesari 2'.
Many in the audience were pleasantly surprised by her portrayal of a lawyer, which marks a shift from her typical glamorous roles. One viewer mentioned to IANS, “Ananya Panday has done an excellent job. She often faces trolling for her acting, but in this film, she truly showcases her talent. This isn’t a glamorous role; she takes on the character of a lawyer, and her performance is commendable.”
Another viewer commented, “I thoroughly enjoyed the film. It centers around Jallianwala Bagh, a historical event we all recognize, but we previously overlooked the significance of Shankar Nair, who is the essence of the movie. Akshay Kumar has delivered an incredible performance in his role. It's a film that everyone ought to see. Every character plays a vital part. It’s not just about Akshay Kumar or R. Madhavan, but also Ananya Panday. Even the foreign cast members performed brilliantly. Akshay Kumar has once again excelled, and Madhavan has given a strong performance. Seeing Ananya Panday in this role was refreshing. This could mark a significant point in her career, and she has done remarkably well.”
Another filmgoer referred to 'Kesari 2' as a “masterpiece,” commending both the direction and performances. “The actors delivered fantastic performances, and I was particularly impressed by Ananya Panday’s role. We’ve seen her in glamorous parts previously, but here, she has embraced something entirely different, and I truly appreciated her performance. R. Madhavan, portraying a negative character, was also exceptional. The foreign actors also made valuable contributions.”
For some, the courtroom drama elements evoked memories of other acclaimed legal thrillers like 'Pink' and 'Jolly LLB 2'. It’s a well-crafted movie that is highly engaging. At 2 hours and 15 minutes, it doesn’t feel lengthy at all. While it bears similarities to other courtroom dramas, the engagement level is slightly lower. A drawback noted by some is the heavy use of English in certain scenes, which might pose a challenge for some viewers. Nevertheless, I would rate it 3.5 stars. Akshay Kumar and Madhavan were outstanding, and Ananya Panday’s performance was a delightful surprise.”
One viewer expressed his excitement, saying, “I loved it! Akshay Kumar’s performance is remarkable, and every role is executed so well that it’s difficult to choose a single standout. The audience was so engrossed in the film that no one moved for a moment. It’s undoubtedly a must-watch for all, and I would rate it five stars!”
According to audience feedback, it is clear that 'Kesari 2' has resonated well with viewers, who are not only applauding the powerful historical narrative but also the diverse and impressive performances of the cast.
