Akshay Kumar urges youth to watch ‘Kesari’

Akshay Kumar’s next film is ‘Kesari’ which is releasing this month. The actor has said that the youth should watch the film.

“Youth should come and see the film to understand what sacrifice and bravery is all about,” said the actor, as quoted by Deccan Chronicle.

“Kesari was a very emotional journey for me because my father was also a soldier. He was in the army. And, Kesari too is a story about soldiers. If you Google it, you will realise that the Battle of Saragarhi is the second topmost battle in the world. We celebrate a film like 300, which is fictional, but this is a real story of 21 soldiers who held off 10,000 invaders knowing they would eventually die in the battle. The British celebrate it as Saragarhi Day but we don’t,” he added.

The film also stars Parineeti Chopra.
