All about Ikkis

Ikkis centres on the Battle of Basantar during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971, highlighting the bravery and sacrifice of Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal and his comrades. The movie showcases Arun's life from his days at NDA and the training, from his dream of becoming a brave army officer to his eagerness to get into the army. His love life with Kiran has also been shown in the film.

Earlier in December, a special screening of Ikkis was held in the capital, attended by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh. During the event, he interacted with the film’s lead actors, Agastya Nanda and Jaideep Ahlawat, and honoured the family members of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal, who sacrificed his life at the age of 21 during the 1971 India-Pakistan war.

A day before the release, Dharmendra’s sons, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol, paid a heartfelt tribute to the late legend. Sharing the film’s poster on Instagram, they wrote: “Our Papa, the man of the soil, Ikkis is his salute – his gift to the earth he loved and to the fans who always stood by him. For our family, it is a treasure filled with his spirit, courage, and his heart. Today, with love and immense pride, we share it with the world, hoping it lives on the way he does – forever.”
