Akshay Kumar's Kesari Chapter 2 is already having a good pre-release buzz and is expected to score a solid day 1 at the Indian box office.

Kesari Chapter 2, starring Akshay Kumar, R Madhavan, and Ananya Panday in key roles, is a couple of weeks away from hitting the big screen. The makers played it smart by making it a spiritual sequel to 2019’s Kesari, which was a critical and commercial success. This has generated a genuine interest on the ground level, and on top of that, the promotional assets have been impressive so far. So, let’s discuss the impact of the recently released trailer on the box office potential of day 1 below!

Good buzz on the ground level

In the post-pandemic era, we have seen sequels or films with franchise value perform brilliantly. This is because the goodwill of the predecessor naturally triggers excitement among moviegoers. Similarly, even the Kesari sequel is enjoying good buzz, and there’s curiosity about the film. Also, the casting of R Madhavan alongside Akshay Kumar has generated a certain amount of interest.

Trailer enjoys a positive response

Yesterday, the much-awaited trailer of Kesari Chapter 2 was unveiled on the internet. Backed by the strong presence of Akshay Kumar and R Madhavan, powerful dialogues, and intense scenes, the trailer looked like a winner from the word go. The biggest selling point of the film is the face-off between Akshay and Madhavan, which was glimpsed in the latest promo.

The trailer of Kesari Chapter 2 is enjoying positive responses from all over, and it has done the job of increasing the buzz for the film. Apart from the sequel factor and the powerful trailer, the film also benefits from a holiday release. The film is scheduled to release on April 18, 2025, on Good Friday. This holiday further pushes the box office potential.

Day 1 expectation

Overall, Kesari Chapter 2 is in a comfortable position to score well on day 1. As of now, it is likely to earn 23-26 crore net at the Indian box office, thus scoring the second-biggest opening for Akshay Kumar in the post-COVID era. Sooryavanshi might remain unbeatable with 26.29 crore net.
