Kesari

Akshay Kumar deserves Filmfare atleast and utmost a nominee for Oscar!!! No I am not over rating this movie but its time we start giving Akshay Kumar the credit he has always deserved 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Brilliant and phenomenal

I wouldn't want to leave any spoilers, but do watch this movie. It's definitely a must watch although I was pretty late for the same. After watching it, I salute the Sikh with great respect to them. Akshay Kumar, once again, has done a remarkable job proving why he has been the best in the business since last 3 years. The movie's collection didn't do justice to this Epic, full of emotions movie, however the reason I must say could be the religion prospect. I would like you to leave that part for a while, and watch the movie. For a bit, enjoy yourself, and have no grudge for any community/religion be it Muslim/Sikh/hindu or even the Poor! Lead the life with the justice to serve humanity, however, if not so, then don't let anything happen in this society that spreads religious terror. Stay happy and make the world Smile. Jai Hind!

A very sharp script with a powerfull performance.The screenplay is superb.akshay kumar's acting is top notch.watch it for sure.

Kesari is a well captured Period War Drama. It's first of it's kind as other periodic films mostly have love story as base or many other commercial elements are involved but unlike those Kesari is a story about those 21 brave 36th Sikh Regiment Soldiers who had the responsibility to save the day and honor of theirs. Important thing about this movie is they haven't twisted the history and facts in order to make it intriguing or exciting, in fact the war scenes are very realistic and well choreographed as well as long enough to enjoy which was missing in most period movies till now except Manikarnika and Bahubali series.

Movie locations are spectacular. VFX was very nice. Dialogues were powerful and sometimes less words did their work very well, eg "Chal Jootha". Action sequences were very realistic and a treat to watch. Emotional connect was from start of the movie till the end. Some techniques during war were impressive. So many moments of Goosebumps. BGM was awesome and fully justified. Bonding between the Sikh soldiers gave a good feel.

On the other side, film took too much time to the start of war and that's where editing was required. Roles of Afghanis could have been added and the drama could have been made more interesting in the first half. As the War scenes were eye candy I wish the makers could have added 10 more minutes of the action and war scenes. Hand Grenades were used at that time by soldiers which were missing.

When it comes to intense and such powerful roles Akshay Kumar will not be a first choice in anyone's mind but here he proves everyone wrong as he was born to play Havaldar Ishar Singh. A role for a lifetime he played. His acting was one of the best thing that lifted up Kesari. His intensity is spectacular. The other 20 Sikhs were played powerfully especially Gurmukh Singh's character was played very well.

In the end you will feel what those real soldiers would have gone through.

From the beginning of the movie till ending visually it's awesome that too in such budget, story is all about history which has to know every Indian how 21 sikhs fought woth 10000 patans and sacrifices their lifes movie is emotionally connected particularly last 20 mints of climax, bgm work is good, director has succeeded with his script, dialogues he delivered good out put in limited budget all though we can find few minor flaws but that will be not a problem for general audience, editing should have been bit tighter,Over all technical values are good enough.

Akshay Kumar's best performance till date, he lived in the character throughout the movie so natural kudos to him for choosing such kind of subjects he is becoming versatile actor, parineeti chopra has very minor role but promising one she has done her best in limited time, all other 21 sikhs and every other character had done very good job.

Final verdict-go and watch this emotional action drama saga am sure you won't regret.
