Entertainment Nov 24, 2025

The first poster for Ikkis is out, spotlighting Dharmendra and Agastya Nanda as they gear up to tell the inspiring story of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal—the youngest ever Param Vir Chakra awardee.
Set for a Christmas Day release this year, the film honors national heroism with the line: "Fathers raise sons. Legends raise nations."

What else to know

Directed by Sriram Raghavan, Ikkis features Agastya Nanda (from The Archies) in the lead, joined by Jaideep Ahlawat and Sikander Kher.
The tagline "Woh Ikkis ka tha, Ikkis ka hi rahega" nods to Khetarpal's legacy from the 1971 Indo-Pak war.
Announced via Instagram, this Maddock Films production invites you to catch a moving tribute to bravery on the big screen this Christmas.
