On October 29, the makers unveiled the trailer of "Ikkis," giving a glimpse into the courage, honor, and sacrifice of India’s youngest Param Vir Chakra awardee. The film marks the theatrical debut of Agastya Nanda, who steps into the role of the brave soldier. It also features veteran actor Dharmendra as Lt. Col. (later Brigadier) M.L. Khetarpal, Arun’s father.
The story explores a father’s emotional journey as he tries to understand what compelled his son to disobey orders and embrace near-certain death during the 1971 India-Pakistan war.
Agastya Nanda plays a powerful portrayal of war hero Arun Khetarpal in Sriram Raghavan's gripping drama. For the unversed, Arun Khetarpal, after graduating from the Indian Military Academy, was commissioned into the 17 Poona Horse regiment. Arun Khetarpal was posthumously honored with the Param Vir Chakra, India’s highest military award.
Directed by Sriram Raghavan and produced by Maddock Films, “Ikkis” is set to hit theatres in December 2025.
