Mukesh Khanna: Akshay Kumar’s film Kesari Chapter 2 is performing exceptionally well at the box office. This film is based on the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre and the subsequent legal battle. Veteran actor Mukesh Khanna has also given his reaction to the film. He not only praised it but also urged people to watch this historical story.

What Mukesh Khanna Said About the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre

‘Shaktimaan’ fame Mukesh Khanna shared a post on the social media platform Instagram and wrote, “The Jallianwala Bagh massacre is recorded in the darkest pages of the history of British rule in India. It hasn’t been discussed enough. Very few young people in our country may not have heard this name. This is because most of our history has been written by outsiders.”
He further wrote, “Therefore, making a film on this subject is commendable in itself. I would wholeheartedly thank the makers of this film. Exposing the British in the courts… this is fantastic. More such films should be made on our history. Congratulations to its director for portraying it so well.”
