EXCLUSIVE: Ram Madhvani on Akshay Kumar starrer Kesari 2 having the same premise as The Waking of a Nation, “We know how much of a miracle it is to…”

This was pointed out to Madhvani in an exclusive chat with Bollywood Hungama. He said, “We have known about it. We knew four years ago that Akshay and Dharma are doing this film with Ananya Panday and Madhavan. We knew that it is about a court case that happens in London. In a way, it’s not similar but it is about Jallianwala Bagh. I am told it’s a good movie. I am told by people who have seen it.”

Madhvani added that he wants to see Kesari 2 being successful. “I genuinely wish them every success,” he said. “We are all here trying to put out our work. We know how much of a miracle it is to do work itself and put it out. Genuinely, I wish their film does well. We all over here are rooting for them.”

Directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, Kesari Chapter 2 is produced by Dharma Productions, Cape Of Good Films and Leo Media Collective.
