Helmed by Anurag Singh, Kesari is scheduled to release on March 21, 2019. Kesari is based on 1857 Battle of Saragarhi between Sikh soldiers of the British Indian army and Pashtun Orakzai tribesmen, where 21 Sikhs fought against 10,000 Afghans in 1897.
Kesari is the same film, which was announced with Salman Khan and Karan Johar coming onboard as the film's producers. On hearing these three bigwigs joining hands for this epic saga, their fans couldn't contain their excitement. However, due to certain reasons, Salman Khan opted out of the association.
