I’m excited for audience across the country to witness this courtroom battle and to know the truth of Jallianwala Bagh that most of us were unaware of. Watch it all unfold in the World TV Premiere of Kesari Chapter 2 on September 13, at 8 PM, only on Star Gold.”
Ananya Panday expressed, “Playing Dilreet Gill has been an absolute honour for me. She represents the fearless youth who believed in truth above all else. Being part of a film that captures such an important moment in our country’s history has been truly special, and I hope viewers, especially the youth, feel the same pride and inspiration I did while bringing Dilreet’s character to life. I’m really looking forward to audiences across the country joining us for the World TV Premiere on Star Gold on September 13 at 8 PM.”

This wasn’t just a historical event; it was a pivotal, yet largely untold, chapter of our nation’s past that fuelled our fight for freedom and justice. My purpose with this film was to illuminate the incredible courage of a man who, armed with nothing but his convictions and the law, challenged the might of the British Empire. I’m truly eager for audiences to witness his story in Kesari Chapter 2, premiering on Star Gold on September 13 at 8 PM.”
