Despite Kesari Chapter 2 featuring a powerful patriotic theme centered on the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre, the film underperformed on Day 1, especially given its high-profile star cast and Good Friday release window. The film may benefit from weekend footfalls, but stiff competition from Sunny Deol’s Jaat and lukewarm occupancy may limit its short-term growth.
