Kesari Movie Review: Akshay Kumar's powerful performance lifts up the war epic
Akshay Kumar-Parineeti Chopra's Kesari takes you back to the pre-independence period of 1897
Akshay Kumar is all set to entertain us once again with Kesari. The film directed by Anurag Singh is based on the Battle of Saragarhi. It is a cinematic account of the fight between the troops of the 36th Sikh regiment and Afridi and Orakzai tribesmen in 1897. The film also stars Parineeti Chopra as Akshay's wife. The film is releasing on Holi and is set to enjoy an undisputed run till Notebook and Junglee hits the theatres.
Kesari might not be a great war epic but is a well intentioned effort to acquaint young people with the valour, courage and nationalism of the Sikhs. It also talks about humanity. The film is a one time watch.
